This role is essential to the company’s success, serving as the critical first touchpoint in the sales funnel where your outreach and engagement directly influence pipeline health and conversion rates. You will be empowered to own your territory, build relationships with key decision-makers, and contribute to SciLeads’ mission of delivering actionable insights that accelerate innovation in the life sciences sector.
- • Your day-to-day responsibilities will include proactively managing and nurturing your pipeline of pre-qualified accounts through strategic outreach via phone, email, and LinkedIn to schedule product demos; maintaining accurate and up-to-date records in the CRM system to ensure visibility and forecasting accuracy; collaborating closely with Sales Managers to align on target accounts, refine messaging, and optimize outreach strategies; conducting research on prospects to personalize communication and demonstrate deep understanding of their scientific and commercial challenges; and consistently meeting or exceeding weekly and monthly activity and conversion targets that feed into the broader sales engine.
- • SciLeads is a fast-growing, award-winning SaaS company recognized by Deloitte as one of the UK’s fastest-growing tech firms for four consecutive years, specializing in sales intelligence solutions tailored exclusively for the life science and pharmaceutical industries.
