About this role
WHO ARE WE
Parse Biosciences, a QIAGEN company, is a global life sciences company whose mission is to accelerate progress in human health and scientific research.
Empowering researchers to perform single cell sequencing with unprecedented scale and ease, its pioneering approach has enabled groundbreaking discoveries in cancer treatment, tissue repair, stem cell therapy, kidney and liver disease, brain development, and the immune system.
With technology developed at The University of Washington, Parse has raised over $100 million in capital and is now used by over 3.000 customers across the world. Our growing portfolio of products includes Evercode Whole Transcriptome, Evercode TCR, BCR, Gene Capture, and Trailmaker, our data analysis solution.
Parse Biosciences is based in Seattle, Washington’s vibrant South Lake Union district, where we recently opened a 34,000 square foot headquarters and state-of-the-art laboratory.
THE POSITION
As a Technical Sales (Account) Manager, you will be responsible for achieving sales objectives for our single cell RNA sequencing products through the development of new business and management of current customer accounts.
You will be expected to create and execute a sales strategy across academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical accounts while working closely with Field Application Scientists and other Parse team members. Candidates should have strong technical skills, sales skills, the ability to develop and manage customer relationships, and a drive to overachieve.
Gaining a deep understanding of the single cell market and Parse’s products will be critical to success. You will accelerate growth in both named Key Accounts and select territories across the United States. You will act as a specialist to move an emerging segment faster than one rep can on their own.
