Job Description

At Thermo Fisher Scientific, our mission is to enable our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer.

As the world leader in serving science, we support customers across research, healthcare and industry with one of the broadest portfolios of laboratory products, chemicals, instruments and services available. From helping researchers develop tomorrow's therapies to supporting hospitals, food manufacturers, automotive companies, semiconductor manufacturers and pharmaceutical production, our work makes a real difference every day.

Join our European Sales team and work with an incredibly diverse customer base across France & Belgium. Every conversation is an opportunity to help customers solve real scientific and operational challenges while building long-term partnerships.

This is a 100% remote, home-based position. While you'll collaborate closely with colleagues across Europe through digital channels, occasional travel for team meetings or customer events (typically 1–2 trips per year) is expected.

Discover Impactful Work

As an Account Manager, you will manage and grow a diverse portfolio of customers across France & Belgium.

Your customers will range from local laboratories and universities to hospitals, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, food and beverage manufacturers, automotive companies, semiconductor manufacturers and many other organisations driving innovation across research, healthcare and industry.

You'll become a trusted partner who understands your customers' needs, helps them navigate our broad portfolio of products and services, and identifies opportunities to strengthen our partnership over time.

This is a proactive sales role where relationship building, curiosity and commercial thinking are just as important as achieving sales targets. You'll engage customers through phone, video meetings and digital channels while collaborating with colleagues across Europe to deliver an outstanding customer experience.
