Job Description

XAVIER CREATIVE HOUSE

SALES LEADER


THE PERSON

Are you a sales leader who thrives on building relationships as much as closing deals? Do you bring both strategic thinking and a hands-on approach to driving revenue in a regulated, complex and evolving market? Are you energized by the challenge of shaping growth, influencing teams, and elevating how a company shows up to its customers? Do you have the curiosity, creativity, and resilience to succeed in a fast-paced, ever-changing healthcare landscape? If you are a high-energy, relationship-first sales leader who knows how to turn strategy into revenue, we want to talk to you!

Our ideal Sales Leader is:

A Revenue Architect

  • You build structure that generates results. You think in systems, scale, and strategy, connecting market opportunity to a sustainable, compounding growth engine.

A Trust-Based Relationship Builder

  • In life sciences, credibility opens doors that cold outreach never will. You build authentic relationships that evolve into long-term partnerships, and you know how to cultivate them from the inside out.

A Cross-Functional Collaborator

  • Sales does not live in a silo here. You link arms with Marketing, Creative, and Client Services to create a unified, client-centric growth motion that benefits the entire business.

A Healthcare Market Insider

  • You have been in the space long enough to know its nuances, its buyers, its rhythms. You understand the complexity of pharma, biotech, and med device, and you know how to position an agency powerfully within it.

A Mature, Emotionally Intelligent Leader

  • You bring gravitas without ego. You are steady under pressure, thoughtful in conflict, and generous in your leadership of the people around you.

Our Sales Leader is more than a revenue leader. They are a catalyst for growth, helping Xavier Creative House evolve from where we are today to where we are going next. This person will shape how we show up in the market, how we win, and how we scale. They will play a critical role in building a sustainable, strategic revenue engine while strengthening the relationships that define our success. Most importantly, they will help us grow boldly and intentionally into the future of our business.
