Náplň práce: Hlavní náplní práce na této pozici je každodenní rozvoj obchodních příležitostí a aktivní návštěva kardiologů, diabetologů, internistů i praktických lékařů a lékáren ve svěřeném regionu Košického a Prešovského kraje. Jako medicínský reprezentant budete samostatně plánovat a organizovat odborné semináře či menší setkání v nemocnicích a efektivně spravovat přidělený regionální rozpočet. K úspěšnému plnění denních cílů a prodejních plánů budete využívat moderní kombinované formy komunikace zahrnující osobní schůzky, e-maily i telefonáty. Zároveň budete sledovat vývoj na trhu, analyzovat tržní podíly i konkurenci a sdílet své postřehy a zpětnou vazbu v rámci týmu.

Kdo jste:

zkušenost z farmacie: máte předchozí praxi na pozici reprezentanta, ideálně 3–5 let

absolutní samostatnost: jste vnitřně motivovaný člověk, který dokáže efektivně řídit svůj čas i sám sebe

časová flexibilita: máte mind-set orientovaný na výsledky a nevadí vám občasné večerní semináře či víkendové akce, pokud to situace vyžadovala

jazyková vybavenost: angličtinu ovládáte na úrovni min. B1 pro spolehlivé porozumění odborným materiálům a přednáškám

technické dovednosti: zvládáte práci s MS Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) a rádi pracujete s daty

řidičský průkaz: jste aktivní řidič (ŘP sk. B) s bydlištěm ideálně přímo v Košicích či Prešově

medicínské, farmaceutické či veterinární vzdělání je pro vás velkou výhodou, nikoliv však podmínkou

Mzda začíná na 2.000 EUR měsíčně a je závislá na zkušenostech kandidáta.

What we offer: We are curious minds that come from a broad range of backgrounds, perspectives, and life experiences. We believe that this variety drives excellence and innovation, strengthening our ability to lead in science and technology.

How we calculate "similar"

No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.

Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.

Unmatched or unknown dimensions score exactly the same: 0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
