Full Job Description
Description

This position is focused on the PrincetonOne brand, selling specialized recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device organizations.

The ideal candidate for the Life Sciences Sales Executive will be an experienced sales professional with a proven record of new business development in life sciences RPO or staffing. This role covers the full product life cycle - discovery and preclinical research, clinical development, regulatory submission, and commercial manufacturing and distribution. It requires credible, consultative conversations with R&D, Clinical, Regulatory, Quality, Manufacturing, and Talent Acquisition leaders about how hiring needs change as a program advances.

The role is hybrid for candidates in the greater Jacksonville, FL area with the option to work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays.

• Manage prospects through the entire sales process, translating hiring needs at any stage of the life cycle into RPO service solutions
• Speak credibly about both early-stage needs (IND/IDE-enabling studies, clinical trials) and commercial-stage needs (GMP manufacturing, CMO/CDMO oversight, cold chain), positioning PrincetonOne and Hueman as a specialized life sciences partner, not a generalist staffing vendor
• Identify expansion opportunities as clients progress from clinical development into commercial manufacturing

• Manage the sales funnel in the CRM and partner with PrincetonOne and Hueman leadership on long-term relationships
