With the NHS facing unprecedented pressures—record waiting lists, staffing crises, and mounting financial constraints—youll position our technology as the solution to reduce administrative burden, improve patient flow, and deliver measurable cost savings.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span>Please note that this role is hiring for NHS expertise first, sales experience second. If youre a clinician, healthcare manager, administrator, or anyone who truly understands the inner workings of the NHS, we want to hear from you—whether youre a seasoned sales professional or have never sold anything in your life. We can teach our sales methodology in weeks, but we cant replicate the years of NHS knowledge, established relationships, and hard-earned credibility you bring to every conversation. Your insider perspective, combined with our training, is the winning formula.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span>Youll be building relationships from the ground up in a system where procurement cycles can span 18+ months and stakeholder alignment is everything. Success here positions you as our future Head of EU Sales, reporting directly to a US-based General Manager (GM) with extensive healthcare sales experience.</span></div><div><span>Think of this like operating in a seed-stage startup. There’s uncertainty, fast pivots, and a lot of chaos–but for the right person, that’s exactly the thrill.
