What will you be doing?

In this role, you will develop and maintain a deep understanding of the robotic and navigation market landscape, including market trends, customer priorities, and the competitive environment, to help shape the go-to-market strategy. You will support the commercial sales team by providing technical product expertise both in the field and at corporate offices, ensuring successful customer conversion and satisfaction.

Working in partnership with the sales team, you will define and implement effective targeting strategies, identify and develop physician champions, and gather insights to inform marketing decisions. Additionally, you will support industry educational meetings and events, on-site customer meetings and labs, national sales meetings, and other strategic gatherings. Throughout all activities, you will cultivate strong relationships with key customers, internal stakeholders, and the broader sales organization.

What will you need to be successful?
To succeed in this role, you will need over five years of demonstrated marketing experience in the robotics segment, with experience in orthopedics considered a strong advantage.
