What are the responsibilities and job description for the Territory Manager position at InspireMD?
Job Title: Territory Manager (TM)
Direct Manager: Regional Sales Director (RSD)
Essential Duties And Responsibilities
A Territory Manager is responsible for the sales and market development efforts to successfully commercialize InspireMD’s products. In this role, the TM will work with both clinical and administrative customers, first to receive approvals to sell products in given accounts, then to provide world-class sales and clinical support to customers using or interested in using InspireMD products. Reporting to a Regional Sales Director, the TM will work with Field Clinical Specialists, fellow TMs and other functions (Training/Commercial Development, Clinical Affairs, etc.) to support customers and to support the overall success of InspireMD’s launches of CGuard Prime and SwitchGuard.
TMs must have excellent sales, training and communication skills to effectively interact with and inspire a wide range of stakeholders, to include customers, their teams, customer service, the rest of the commercial organization and other cross-functional colleagues. While a significant amount of clinical and commercial activity/cases is preplanned, there are also times when immediate action (including travel) will be required to meet customer and patient needs- working at a fast pace with a can-do attitude will be critical to success in the role. Furthermore, as a new commercial organization, accounts that have not yet done business with InspireMD will be norm rather than the exception- the ability to inspire customers to be COMMITTED (I want to use your product and will help you get it approved) rather than just interested (I will use it when it’s available) will lead to success in the role.
