Job Description
Johnson & Johnson is a global leader in healthcare innovation, dedicated to creating solutions that transform the health and wellbeing of people worldwide. As a diversified healthcare company, Johnson & Johnson's expertise spans pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and consumer health products. Their commitment to advancing medical technology and improving patient outcomes is evident in their continuous development of innovative products and treatments that address complex diseases and conditions. With a strong global presence and a culture that values diversity, inclusion, and respect for individuals, Johnson & Johnson fosters a supportive work environment where employees are empowered to make a meaningful impact on health for humanity.
The role of Sales Associate within the Orthopaedics division, more specifically under DePuy Synthes, offers a unique opportunity to join a pioneering team that is revolutionizing orthopedic care through the integration of biology and technology. This position, based in Jacksonville, Florida, focuses on MedTech sales with a clinical emphasis on surgeons and surgical procedures. Sales Associates play a critical role in supporting healthcare professionals by ensuring that the latest orthopedic products and solutions are effectively utilized during surgeries and clinical procedures. Responsibilities include providing expert clinical and product knowledge, supporting case logistics, troubleshooting technical issues, and maintaining strong relationships with surgeons and hospital accounts.
DePuy Synthes, part of Johnson & Johnson's Medical Devices Companies, offers one of the most comprehensive orthopedics portfolios globally. Their solutions cover joint reconstruction, trauma, craniomaxillofacial surgery, spinal surgery, sports medicine, and digital surgery, designed to enhance patient care by delivering both clinical value and economic benefits to healthcare providers. The Sales Associate role involves collaboration with surgical teams to introduce and optimize these advanced orthopedic implants and devices, ensuring patient safety and successful surgical outcomes.
This position requires a dynamic professional with technical product knowledge, excellent interpersonal skills, and the ability to navigate the complex clinical environment of operating rooms and sterile processing departments. Candidates will be responsible for managing surgeon relationships, meeting sales objectives, and maintaining product availability and promotional materials within their territory. The role involves travel, including weekend and overnight trips, to support customer needs and attend surgeries. Johnson & Johnson values candidates who are organized, self-motivated, positive, and proactive, with a strategic mindset and strong problem-solving abilities.
As Johnson & Johnson prepares to establish DePuy Synthes as a standalone orthopedics company, this role offers the added prospect of joining a newly independent entity focused exclusively on advancing orthopedic medicine. The transition is expected to maintain employee benefits and employment policies under DePuy Synthes, providing stability and continued growth potential.
Overall, this Sales Associate position offers a challenging and rewarding career path for professionals passionate about orthopedic innovation and committed to improving patient care through cutting-edge medical technology. Candidates will be supported throughout the recruitment process with clear communication and accommodations as needed, reflecting Johnson & Johnson's dedication to an inclusive and respectful hiring experience. Join Johnson & Johnson and DePuy Synthes to be part of a mission that keeps over 6 million people moving every year by delivering smarter, less invasive, and more personalized orthopedic treatments.
