Field Sales Development Representative - Pets

Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health ("BIAH" or the "Company") is a worldwide leader in Animal Health Pharmaceuticals. The Field Sales Development Representative (FSD) is a developmental role that simultaneously trains to be a future BIAH Sales Representative and supports the Field Sales team by providing outbound telephone coverage for a subset of field accounts. The FSD will also temporarily cover outside sale territories as part of the developmental program.

BI AH’s Field Sales Development Representative Program is the gateway for entry into the Pet Field Sales organization. The FSD is expected to complete a development program including BIAH technical product and sales training, on the job training including telephonic sales, field sales and in-clinic experiences. FSD’s will work closely with field sales to grow share, gain new product penetration and uncover opportunities and threats while promoting the portfolio of BIAH products.

The FSD team supports the Field Sales team by providing outbound telephone coverage for a subset of field accounts. Key performance indicators in this role include metrics for interactions with customers, orders taken, dollars sold and call quality. In addition to extensive internal sales training, the successful FSD will be asked to participate in temporary field-based assignments. Assignment(s) would last between 3-5 months so the ability to temporarily relocate on short notice is a must.

During these assignments, the FSD will be responsible for sales goals, market share and profitability results for the duration of the assignment. Anticipated time in the FSD position is approximately 24 months before being eligible to progress to a field based Sales Representative role. The ability to relocate is mandatory with preference for candidates willing to relocate anywhere in the US.

The key measurement for success in this position is the accomplishment of individual and team sales objectives, training objectives and the attainment of BI AH’s overall business performance.

The FSD role is located in our BI AH Headquarters in Duluth, Georgia (in the Atlanta area); therefore, all candidates must currently reside in or be willing to relocate to the Atlanta area. We offer a nice relocation package for candidates open to relocating to the Atlanta area!
