Just finished university and looking for a career where hard work gets rewarded?
Maybe you're fascinated by healthcare, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, or medical innovation.
Maybe you've realised you enjoy meeting people, building relationships, and setting ambitious goals.
If you're competitive, resilient, and motivated by success, this could be the perfect first step into a high-growth sales career.
We're looking for ambitious graduates to join our commercial team as
Sales Associates , helping connect leading pharmaceutical and healthcare organisations with innovative marketing and educational solutions.
This isn't a role where you'll spend years waiting for your next opportunity.
Our top performers can progress into a full

What's In It For You?
- £30,000 basic salary
- 3% commission on every deal that closes from meetings you book
- Clear progression to Account Executive within 12-18 months
- Structured training and ongoing coaching
- Work in a growing business within the healthcare and pharmaceutical space
- Learn commercial sales skills that will benefit your entire career
- Be recognised and rewarded for performance
- What You’ll Be Doing
As a Sales Associate, you'll be responsible for generating opportunities that fuel the wider sales team.
You'll identify target companies, engage senior decision-makers, and secure high-quality meetings that turn into revenue.

- Managing activity accurately within the CRM

- Biomedical Science
- Pharmacology
- Life Sciences
- Healthcare
- Business
- Marketing
- Psychology
