Regional Sales Manager- Northeast

FloodGate Medical Inc · Tampa, FL, USA ·

Job type:
Contract

Company Overview:

ONKOS Surgical is a rapidly growing orthopedic implant company focused exclusively on orthopedic oncology and complex revision surgery - two of the most demanding and underserved specialties in musculoskeletal care. Our implants are used by fellowship-trained orthopedic oncologists and high-volume complex revision surgeons performing limb salvage, tumor resection reconstruction, and complex joint reconstruction procedures at leading academic medical centers and cancer programs nationwide. Our commercial model is built around three distinct but deeply aligned field roles: the Strategic Account Manager (SAM), who owns Priority 1 surgeon relationships at our most critical institutions; the Regional Sales Manager (RSM), who owns distribution and territory revenue performance; and the Field Product Director (FPD), who owns clinical excellence across the entire selling organization. The RSM is the commercial anchor of this model - the role that ensures the entire territory performs, every distributor is accountable, and every surgeon in the region has access to ONKOS.

Job Overview:

The RSM is accountable for territory revenue attainment, distribution management, hospital contracting and pricing, and servicing the clinical needs of surgeon customers across their geography. The RSM owns the territory revenue plan, manages distributor and sub-rep partners to performance, and ensures a consistent, exceptional customer experience at every account in their territory - from tumor centers to high-volume revision hospitals.

Products:
Founded in 2015, with best-in-class innovation partners, Onkos Surgical will deliver high quality implants and instruments that meet the unique needs of musculoskeletal tumor patients.
From modular segmental systems to customized solutions and patient specific products, Onkos Surgical will partner with surgeons to provide new innovations to help address complex cases.
Onkos Surgical has capabilities to increase the speed and delivery of innovation. Onkos Surgical is leveraging new technologies, such as 3D printing, to meet the unique needs of the cancer patient or surgeon.
Onkos Surgical will develop products for both hard and soft-tissue applications while continuing to explore strategic partnerships to differentiate our product portfolio.
