Job description

The Job’s Mission:

As Senior Sales Representative, you will help us deliver on our mission of making healthcare better by promoting and selling Stryker’s Joint Replacement medical devices across the Eastern Netherlands. Key cities in your territory will include Utrecht, Arnhem, Nijmegen, Eindhoven, Zwolle, and the surrounding region.

Our Joint Replacement division offers market-leading implants for the hip and knee, helping improve patient and hospital outcomes through procedural excellence. In this role, you will also support the sales cycle of our innovative Mako Robotics system. The Mako robot enables surgeons to perform more precise and predictable procedures, often resulting in faster recovery times compared to manual hip or knee surgeries.

This is a high-impact position within the Netherlands Sales team and an excellent next step in your sales career. You’ll develop strategic plans to acquire new customers and ensure top-tier service to existing accounts. If you're passionate about healthcare and innovation, this is your opportunity to make a real difference with one of the world’s leading medical technology companies.

Please note: this position requires approximately 70% travel across the East Netherlands region.

What You Will Do:

• Begin with a comprehensive onboarding and product training program to build strong technical and clinical knowledge.
• Identify new business opportunities while nurturing existing customer relationships based on trust and value-added service.
• Develop and implement effective business plans, negotiating with key stakeholders including surgeons, hospital administrators, and procurement teams.
• Provide product education, demonstrations, and clinical support in surgical settings when needed.
• Lead or participate in business-critical projects and cross-functional initiatives.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure seamless order processing and post-sales support.
• Act as a mentor and coach for other sales professionals within the organization.
• Attend conferences, seminars, and business meetings to stay informed and expand your professional network.

What You Need:

Required:

• 5+ years of sales experience, ideally in MedTech, BioTech, Pharmaceuticals, healthcare, or other relevant industries.
• Degree or diploma in business, physiotherapy, nursing, healthcare, or another relevant field.
• Fluent in Dutch and English (written and spoken).
• Strong interpersonal, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• A passion for (medical) technology and a resilient, customer-first mindset.
• Analytical, organized, and adaptable – able to manage complex sales cycles and customer needs.
• A valid driver’s license, as this position involves regular travel.

Preferred:

• Previous exposure to orthopedics or anatomical knowledge is a plus, but not essential.

What We Offer:

• A culture driven by purpose and committed to excellence.
• Career growth opportunities – both vertical and lateral – with tailored development plans.
• Recognition programs that reward individual and team success on a local and global scale.
• A diverse and inclusive environment where your voice is heard and respected.
• A competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package including company car, pension plan, and more.
• The chance to work with market-leading technologies that have a real impact on patients' lives.
• The opportunity to discover your strengths, follow your passion, and shape your career path.
