Job Description

Are you ready to put a face to our mission in one of Switzerland's most dynamic healthcare regions? Join us in Geneva and the Jura as the trusted partner of general practitioners – translating science into real conversations that change how cardiometabolic disease is recognised, treated and talked about. This is your chance to drive growth in a portfolio that is genuinely reshaping primary care.

Your new role
As our new Primary Care Representative, you will be the face of Novo Nordisk for general practitioners across Geneva, the surrounding areas and the Jura (excluding Lausanne city). You will own your territory end-to-end – building strong, ethical relationships with HCPs and ensuring that more patients living with cardiometabolic disease benefit from our therapies.

Day-to-day your tasks will include:

  • Executing targeted sales strategies to meet and exceed territory goals, using a smart mix of face-to-face visits and remote detailing
  • Building and strengthening trusted relationships with general practitioners, OBGYNs, MPAs and MPKs across your territory
  • Driving awareness of cardiometabolic disease and educating HCPs on the clinical benefits of our products
  • Developing and executing detailed territory business plans aligned with brand strategies and company objectives
  • Collaborating cross-functionally with Field Sales Managers, Specialist Care Representatives, Medical Science Liaisons, Marketing, Market Access and Medical to maximise impact
  • Using CRM tools to track interactions, analyse market trends and continuously sharpen your commercial tactics
  • Sharing competitive insights and best practices with the wider national team to drive collective success, while upholding the highest ethical and compliance standards

Your new department

You will join our Swiss Sales team covering the French-speaking region, working closely with marketing, medical, market access and field colleagues. It is a tight-knit, ambitious team where field insight directly shapes how we bring innovation to primary care – and where your voice from the territory genuinely counts. Please note that residence within the assigned territory is required.

Your skills & qualifications
We are looking for a high-performing, customer-centric professional who thrives on autonomy, accountability and being out in the field. You bring:

  • A minimum of 2-3 years of direct sales experience, ideally within pharmaceutical, healthcare or related FMCG sectors – experience in primary care and cardiometabolic disease (diabetes, obesity) is a strong plus
  • A paramedical, medical or scientific education, or a related field; an SHQA certificate is an advantage
  • Fluency in French, plus basic knowledge of English and German
  • A natural ability to build credible, long-term relationships with HCPs and to translate clinical data into compelling, ethical conversations
  • Strong business acumen, personal leadership and a "make-it-happen" mindset, paired with strong teamwork and adaptability in a changing environment
