Head of Sales

Suture Ease is an established surgical device company that’s redefining port‑site closure in laparoscopic and robotic surgery. Its innovative closure systems—used by surgeons nationwide—deliver precision, consistency, and efficiency in minimally invasive procedures. With a strong base of loyal users and an expanding distribution network, Suture Ease is now poised for its next phase of U.S. commercial growth.

We’re seeking a Head of U.S. Sales to execute, expand, and elevate Suture Ease’s domestic commercial operations. This is a player‑coach role—ideal for a driven, entrepreneurial sales leader who thrives on building relationships, mentoring others, and driving execution in the field.

Initially, you’ll personally manage and cover one or more open territories to accelerate near‑term revenue. As the business scales, you’ll transition high‑performing regions from indirect to direct representation, hiring and developing your own team of sales professionals.

• Provide field insights to inform product development and corporate strategy.

• 10+ years of medical device sales experience, with at least 5 years in leadership managing distributor networks or hybrid models.
• Strong background in surgical device sales
  —preferably in laparoscopic, robotic, or closure technologies.
• Proven success transitioning or integrating distributor‑based teams into direct sales organizations.
• Track record of exceeding quotas and developing high‑performing sales teams.
• Strategic thinker with hands‑on, “in‑the‑field” execution capability.
• Willingness to travel extensively across the U.S.
• Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or advanced education preferred.

• Growth opportunity. Lead the transition from distributor‑based to direct sales.
