Full-time Head of Sales — the balanced verdict

Why this role stands out

  • Established pharma/CDMO employer with scale and stability
  • Clear leadership scope — P&L, team of 6, direct VP reporting line
  • Strategic account management + team enablement blend suits experienced sales leader

Worth checking before you apply

  • 50% international travel is substantial; not suited to those needing schedule flexibility
  • On-site role based in Stone, England (Catalent UK hub); relocation or commute expected
  • Team leadership + individual contribution mixed; heavy customer-facing load
