About the Role

Manage the territory with an entrepreneurial mindset, taking ownership of pipeline development, client engagement, and revenue growth.

Partner with internal leadership, production, customer service, and support teams to ensure a strong client experience and smooth case flow.

Represent the company at local dental events, study clubs, conventions, meetings, and networking opportunities.

Use social media and professional outreach channels to increase visibility, strengthen connections, and generate qualified leads.

Track sales activity, market feedback, competitor activity, and performance metrics, and provide regular updates to leadership.

Serve as a trusted point of contact for customers in the assigned region and help position the company as a long-term laboratory partner.

Organized, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel locally within the assigned territory.

Dental industry experience is strongly preferred; candidates without meaningful industry sales experience will not be prioritized.
