Sales Manager – Global Pharmaceutical Markets
ELDICO Scientific AG is a Swiss instrumentation company pioneering three-dimensional electron diffraction (3D-ED) technology. Our electron diffractometer enables pharmaceutical companies to solve crystal structures from nanometer-sized samples – addressing analytical challenges conventional X-ray methods cannot solve.
ELDICO is fundamentally an instrumentation company – the electron diffractometer is our core product. However, our route to market recognizes that innovative analytical technology requires customer education and demonstrated value before equipment investment makes sense.
The Role
Build pharmaceutical customer relationships:
Develop opportunities (50%): Engage pharma, CRO and CDMO organizations; introduce electron diffraction methodology; navigate multi-stakeholder buying processes
Close instrument deals (30%): Convert qualified opportunities to instrument sales; coordinate technical validations; manage complex procurement
Market presence (20%): Represent ELDICO at conferences; customer visits; competitive intelligence; contribute to commercial process development
We’re Looking For:
- Commercial experience
- Analytical instrumentation sales (e.g. XRD, Raman, NMR, HPLC) in pharma
- Field application scientist → sales transition
- Life sciences degree (MSc) or equivalent industry experience
Location: Europe/Americas (hybrid/remote), regular Basel presence required
Travel: 20-30%
Compensation: by agreement
