Are you passionate about precision medicine and advancing healthcare? 

With the advent of genomic sequencing, we now have more data than ever before to decode and understand our genetic makeup. However, healthcare providers often lack the infrastructure and expertise to fully leverage this wealth of genomic data. At Tempus, we're on a mission to connect the entire ecosystem and redefine how genomic data is used in clinical settings.

We are looking for an experienced Precision Medicine Director in the MI, OH, IN and Western PA region to join our rapidly growing U.S. Sales Team. In this role, you will be instrumental in driving the adoption of Tempus’s cutting-edge genomic technologies, offering strategic business solutions to hospitals and laboratories, and leading efforts to transform how providers use genomic data in oncology and beyond.

    • Account Identification: Identify and prioritize near-term and long-term national and regional strategic accounts that would benefit from Tempus's precision medicine solutions, with a strong focus on oncology, molecular diagnostics, and genomics.
    • Client Solutions: Provide business solutions and demonstrate the value of Tempus’s offerings to hospital and laboratory professionals, focusing on the integration of genomic data into clinical workflows. Be able to identify and drive business opportunities across disciplines - including oncology, cardiology, pathology, and radiology. 
    • Contracting & Proposals: Lead and coordinate the contracting process, including proposal development, to ensure successful partnership agreements with strategic accounts.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

    • Team Coordination: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including sales, product, marketing, and customer support, to ensure successful attainment of company goals and objectives for your assigned accounts.
    • Feedback Loop: Continually analyze the competitive landscape within your assigned accounts, gather customer feedback, and provide insights to Tempus leadership to inform strategy and product development.

Market Insights & Leadership

    • Industry Expertise: Stay informed on trends in precision medicine, molecular diagnostics, and genomics, particularly in oncology, and share relevant insights with both internal teams and customers.
    • Company Representation: Embrace and embody Tempus’s company culture at all times, representing the company to both external and internal stakeholders with professionalism and integrity.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

  • Industry Knowledge: Deep understanding of the diagnostic services industry, with strong expertise in molecular diagnostics, genomics, biotechnology, and oncology. Experience selling oncology-based tests and services into oncology or pathology clinical communities is preferred.
  • Sales Expertise: Proven ability to engage in consultative selling, overcoming objections while aligning client needs with Tempus’s offerings. You should be comfortable selling at the executive level (CEO, COO, CFO).
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Ability to build and leverage cross-functional relationships to achieve work goals and objectives, including working with teams across the organization to ensure the successful implementation of precision medicine solutions.
  • Problem-Solving & Innovation: Capacity to develop innovative solutions using Tempus’s sequencing technology to meet the needs of prospective customers.
  • Project Management: Strong ability to prioritize tasks, manage multiple projects, and meet critical deadlines while working independently and maintaining proactive communication.
  • Communication Skills: Exceptional written and oral communication skills, including proficiency in Microsoft Office tools (Excel, PowerPoint) and effective use of Salesforce.com for tracking and reporting sales activities.
  • Confidentiality: Ability to handle sensitive information with a high level of confidentiality and integrity.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
