We’re seeking a strategic, high-performing sales professional to expand our Toxicology, ADME and related lab services across the U.S. and Canada, with the opportunity to engage clients in a global service delivery model. This role requires a strong understanding of preclinical development, including broad in vivo study experience, to effectively position QPS solutions and align with client program needs.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead the full sales cycle for Toxicology, ADME and related lab services: prospecting, presentations, proposals, negotiation, and closing
  • Build and maintain relationships with senior decision-makers at pharma and biotech companies, positioning QPS as a partner for preclinical development
  • Identify opportunities, generate RFPs, and expand existing accounts with a global perspective on service delivery
  • Represent QPS at industry meetings, conferences, and client visits
  • Collaborate with internal teams, including Marketing, Technical Operations, and Finance, to ensure clients’ global ADME/Tox needs are met and exceeded
  • Leverage knowledge of in vivo models and study design considerations to support client discussions and proposal strategies
  • Provide activity reports and sales forecasts to management

What We’re Looking For:

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in life sciences, pharmacology, or toxicology and the experience that provides the KSAs to do the job; DABT credentials preferred
  • 1+ years of business development or technical sales experience in CROs, with a focus on Toxicology services required (3+ years ideally); related experience in ADME preferred
  • Demonstrated experience supporting or selling in vivo preclinical services (rodent and non-rodent models), with a solid understanding of study design, endpoints, and regulatory expectations
  • Demonstrated success selling globally delivered ADME/Tox services and managing client expectations across the assigned regions
  • Strong network in the pharma/biotech industry and deep knowledge of ADME/Tox lab capabilities
  • Self-motivated, results-oriented, and comfortable working remotely
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and closing skills

Why QPS:

Join a collaborative, innovative team shaping the future of drug development. You’ll drive growth in ADME and Toxicology services while connecting U.S. clients with QPS’s global capabilities—an opportunity to make a tangible impact on client success and global preclinical development.
