A journey from Medical Sales to District Sales Manager
I began my journey as an employer in a syndicated team, nowadays referred to as a ‘Go-to-Target Team’. In this team we simultaneously work on several varying projects for different pharmaceutical companies. As a result of this I have learned a lot about different pathologies such as: diabetes, osteoporosis, copd…
After 5 years of employment in a Go-to-Target team I switched positions to a dedicated team. In this team we are employed by one specific pharmaceutical customer. This consequently gives you a much better insight in the work of a pharmaceutical company as you are more closely involved in the marketing and sales strategy of the customer. To succeed, a good collaboration with your colleagues in the same region is key.
Since I’ve started working for IQVIA, I have experienced a positive and rewarding evolution. I always dreamt of a position as District Sales Manager. During the spring of 2017 a DSM position became vacant and I applied. As a result, on the first of September I became the new DSM of a great team.
IQVIA gives you the opportunity to grow and to strengthen your competences every single year. They are open and willing to help achieve your goals. It is a company that lives and works in the present but also looks to the future.

Since joining IQVIA I have had unrivalled support and development from my manager to enable me to aspire to move into secondary care. I feel like my career is strongly supported by my manager in order to maximise my potential.
IQVIA has been behind my development to become a MSL. The contracts that I have worked on have allowed me to push clinical projects with a recent opportunity to manage a pilot scheme integrating e-detailing into an established field based team. The result was an increase in sales.
A quick note to say thank you for your time this morning discussing my future career options. As you know I was feeling very conflicted about the right decision. Discussing the role with you gave me chance to clarify what is important to me.
Just following on from the amazing news I got yesterday I wanted to say a really special thank you for all the help and support you have provided throughout the entire recruitment process.
Once again I cannot thank you enough for not only approaching me with this opportunity but also for all the support you’ve given me along the way!
