Part time Medical Rep Jobs

[lilymolly]

I am on Mat leave and return to my job as full time medical device rep for J&J next year, but do not want to work full time, but cant really do current role part time. Want another Job selling Medical devices part time, but am unsure about which companies do it, and how much they get paid.
I do not want to do Pharmaceuticals though! Any one out there got any advice?

Just a thought.... I am in medicals (also not pharmaceuticals, tried that and HATED it) Also full tiem and wishing to go part time, but not getting a very positive response from my manager at the moment. Where abouts are you? (I'm Derbys / Staffs border). Any chance of job share do you think? Is it something your employers would go for? (Haven't raised it with mine yet )

Hi, no chance of job share, unless you fancy travelling to North East!!
I worked in pharma for 6 years and hated every minute, so do not want to go back to that. My Manager is also not keen on flexible working, but to be honest, may just skive! Someone else mentioned job share, but do not think the salary would be enough divided between 2 people. Who do you work for? will they not consider part time. I know someone from Smith and Nephew, works 4 days, but she gets the rough deal, cos surgeons still ring her up on her day off, but she haslost loads of her salary and commission, so am tempted to stay part time, and just skive one day a week!

think Debsey might be someone to speak with about this?

you can find her on here Debs

Hi Lillymolly i think you have been looking for me i work as a pharmaceutical rep,and have donbe for 6 years.In my field i have never come across any part time reps apart from one.I would say your best bet would be trying recruitment agencies that specialise if you would like to email me ill give you the names of some,also have you looked in the grocer? email me at [email protected]

Hi Thanks Debs

I know a few pharma medical companies who do part time work, but I do not want to go back into pharma- hated it- but want to stick with medical devices. Will try agencies, and telegraph etc nearer the time. Not going back to work until January. Thanks for help anyway. Who do you work for by the way?

aah

Hi there - I know you hate pharma but I workwd for Pfizer for 10 years (sales and marketing) and I believe they used to have part time (term time) reps. Considering it myself for the future although I absolutely loathed repping....needs must and all that!

Ha Ha thanks for advice, but worked for Pfizer myself and Bloody hated it!!!!!! Pfizer call esssentials??? Do they still exist?
God Would never go back, in fact they would prob not have me back

oh my god.......I was in marketing at the time they were launched - and part of the working group for it.....we probably know each other!!!!!! Think they might have been canned anyway....thank goodness!!! which division did you work for....selling what?

Worked for invicta Teesside area! Left under a bit of a cloud thought.....Ha Ha Hated boss and she was nasty to me, but saying that hated job and was not really working very hard IUSWIM
I am Hugely succesful rep now though! Actually am doing really well, pharma just did not suit me at all. Cant remember any marketing people really, so prob not know you
