This is a hybrid role, combining education and account management with high-quality clinical engagement across Primary Care.

The Role

Deliver compliant, evidence-based education on available treatment options.

Support the development and optimisation of referral pathways between Primary and Secondary Care.

Deliver impactful face-to-face and virtual meetings, educational programmes, webinars and professional events.

Collaborate closely with colleagues to ensure alignment with brand objectives, NHS priorities and local healthcare needs.

What We're Looking For

Proven pharmaceutical sales experience - Womens’ Health would be advantageous but not essential.

Strong understanding of the Primary Care environment and NHS structures.

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.
