An great opportunity to help Fast MDx to democratise molecular diagnostics, by making low-cost molecular diagnostic testing available to more people, in more setting, around the world.
This is a really exciting time for Fast MDx, a registered social enterprise, based in West London, as we are currently completing the development phase of our NGX 124, a fully automated, low-cost, mobile, open, molecular diagnostic platform based on 4-channel qPCR,
The NGX 124 is UKCA and CE-IVDr marked and is built under an ISO13485 Quality Management System.
The Commission Sales Associate will be responsible for identifying opportunities, developing customer relationships, demonstrating the NGX 124 platform, and placing systems into laboratories on a zero CapEx subscription use model.
This is a technically credible sales role, requiring confidence in both commercial discussions and practical qPCR demonstrations.
Sales skills: Proven ability in sales, lead generation, and customer relationship management.
~ Essential qualities: Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences, Business, or a related field is preferred; prior experience in sales within the medical or diagnostics industry is a plus.
We are seeking a commercially driven Commission Sales Associate to support the placement of the NGX 124 open automated qPCR platform into private pathology laboratories, NHS pathology laboratories and veterinary testing laboratories on a subscription-based commercial model.
This is a hands-on commercial and technical role requiring both sales capability and qPCR credibility. As the NGX 124 is an open platform, the role will also involve working in parallel with small and medium-sized CE-IVD qPCR assay manufacturers, helping them explore how their assays can be run on the NGX 124. They must also be confident demonstrating a qPCR workflow, including preparing assay chemistry, mixing samples and controls, setting up a run, and explaining the results clearly to laboratory, clinical and commercial stakeholders.
Support commercial discussions with assay manufacturers around platform compatibility, customer access, workflow integration and market opportunities. Help laboratories understand how their existing or planned Laboratory Developed Tests could be implemented on the NGX 124. Liaise with internal technical and product teams to support assay onboarding, demonstration planning and customer feasibility discussions. Gather feedback from assay manufacturers and laboratories to inform commercial strategy, product positioning and future assay support. Help position the NGX 124 as an open, flexible automated qPCR platform for laboratories that want to run CE-IVD assays and their own LDTs.
Understanding of qPCR thermal cyclers, assay compatibility, assay transfer or laboratory workflow implementation. Experience supporting assay transfer, assay validation, verification or implementation into diagnostic laboratory workflows. Knowledge of Laboratory Developed Tests, qPCR assay development, assay performance requirements or diagnostic validation principles….
