Job Description
Based in Osaka sales office, you will be in charge of the Kansai area.

You will also be expected to collaborate on reagent and instrument activities as needed.

You will be responsible for daily sales (run-rate) activities, including new product introductions and switching activities from competitors, as well as small equipment demonstrations and deliveries. There is also a system in place to get academic follow-up from internal technical support as needed. Other duties may include submitting sales forecasts, periodic meetings, and new product training.
Overnight business travel may be required. Periodic trips to the Tokyo headquarters may be required.
