Scrub Nurse - Territory Manager – Manchester – Orthopaedic Sales – North West
Perfect for an Orthopaedic Nurse, Scrub Nurse, ODP or Theatre Practitioner ready to move into sales
This is a rare opportunity for an orthopaedic clinician who wants to step out of the theatre and into a high‑impact commercial role — without starting from scratch. You’ll be taking over a warm, well‑established extremities and trauma territory across the North West, with strong existing relationships and a portfolio that already has real momentum behind it.
You’ll be joining a clinically led organisation that values hands‑on orthopaedic experience just as much as commercial ability. They’re agile, supportive and deeply respected by surgical teams, and they’re looking for someone who understands the rhythm of the theatre, the pressures of trauma cases and the importance of being the calm, knowledgeable presence surgeons can rely on. What you don’t yet know commercially, they will train. What you already know clinically will set you apart from day one.
Your day will still revolve around the theatre, but in a new way. You’ll become the technical partner surgeons trust during foot and ankle trauma procedures, guiding them through complex cases and representing a portfolio known for its quality and performance. You’ll also step into the commercial side: protecting established business, identifying new opportunities, and growing the territory through genuine relationship‑building. You’ll move confidently through hospitals, engaging with surgeons, theatre managers, procurement teams and clinical leads, always with an eye on where the next opportunity sits.
You’ll take ownership of product evaluations, support conversions from first conversation through to procurement approval, and deliver high‑quality training sessions for scrub teams and nursing staff. Your ability to communicate clearly, stay composed under pressure and build rapport quickly will be central to your success.
To thrive here, you’ll bring a few years of orthopaedic theatre experience, whether as a Scrub Nurse, ODP, Theatre Practitioner or similar. Ideally with exposure to trauma, extremities or biologics. You’ll be completely at home in the operating theatre and able to command respect through your clinical knowledge and calm, assured communication. Full commercial experience isn’t essential; what matters is your drive, resilience and appetite to learn how to win in a competitive market. A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel across the region are required.
In return, you’ll receive an excellent starting salary, a company car, phone, laptop, healthcare, income protection, pension and a suite of additional benefits. The company has also recently restructured to create clear, transparent progression pathways, something that genuinely sets them apart in a sector where development is often left to chance.
If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to transition from clinical practice into a commercial role, this is it. Opportunities like this move quickly, and waiting could mean missing out.
To discuss the role in more detail, contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to guide you through the next steps.....Read more...
