About this opportunity

Account Manager Respiratory

Account Manager – Respiratory | South-East Flanders

The best account managers don't just close deals, they earn trust. Conversation by conversation, over months, you shift how GPs and specialists think. At Chiesi you own a region in southern East Flanders, go deep in one respiratory therapeutic area, and watch your work show up in a region that grows. Ready to build something that's yours?

What you'll actually do

You take ownership of your own region in southern East Flanders: GPs and hospital pneumologists, in respiratory care.

You decide who matters, when you see them, and what makes each visit worth their time then you make it happen.

The science moves fast here. Guidelines shift, evidence gets updated, and doctors genuinely want someone who keeps them current. That's your way in: you bring them something new, and you connect it to what we do. Do that well and you stop being a rep,  you become the person a busy specialist makes time for.

This is a long game. You can't always coast on novelty. Every conversation has to earn its place. That's exactly what makes it interesting.

Visiting your GPs and pneumologists, built around a smart, year-round interaction plan

Setting up the actions and events that create access and bring real value to HCPs

Building and growing the account plans for your region

Turning territory data into clear priorities and following your results closely

Working across departments and colleagues; collaboration is genuinely how things get done here

Getting in front of HCPs is harder than it was five years ago, which is exactly why we look for people who get creative rather than just do the rounds.

Who you are

We're after someone who already knows they love this field. If you've spent a couple of years visiting doctors or hospital customers and you genuinely get a kick out of it, you'll feel at home here.

2–3 years' experience in field sales to healthcare professionals (pharma ideally; medical/diagnostics also works if you understand the prescription game)

Genuine affinity with science: we care far more about that than which degree you hold

You're comfortable turning territory data into a plan

Dutch plus English (good level of understanding and conversation)

Ideally, you live in or near the region you'll be on its roads daily

What's in it for you

Join a passionate, Italian family-owned company where our values and behavior truly matter!

As family-owned company we focus on making impact for patients, the planet, people and all that with shared prosperity. Our activities have been externally validated as B Corp certified.

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.
