I grow laboratory sales through key accounts, tenders, and technical product training.
What I'm looking for
I've driven sales growth, client acquisition, and market expansion at JP BIOCHEM since 2018, increasing sales revenue by 40% through strategic customer engagement.
I build long-term relationships with medical FMCG distributors, retail clients, suppliers, corporate clients, and government customers. I manage key accounts, negotiate high-value contracts and supplier terms, and prepare tender documentation that secures contracts.
I lead product training workshops and provide technical sales support that helps customers understand laboratory product applications and benefits. I have also supervised and mentored sales teams to achieve sales targets, market-share growth, and customer retention.
My background combines laboratory industry sales with research, quality management, ISO 17025 accreditation research, market intelligence, and data-driven business strategy. Earlier roles in agricultural research and sales strengthened my experience in product development, quality control, customer solutions, and supply-chain reporting.
