Distek is seeking a motivated, early-career Bioprocessing Account Manager to join our growing sales team. This role is specifically designed for candidates with 1–3 years of experience in life sciences sales or technical customer-facing roles who want to develop their skills in bioprocessing sales.

Based in DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, or Eastern PA, this position focuses on expanding BIOne benchtop bioreactor sales throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. You’ll work directly with customers to understand their applications, support product evaluations, and build long-term relationships—while learning Distek’s sales process, products, and market approach.
This role reports to the Vice President of Sales and offers a strong foundation for career growth in technical sales within the bioprocessing industry.
If you meet the qualifications and are passionate about bioprocessing sales, we encourage you to apply!
