Job Description

You prepare for the meetings of the day and touch base with colleagues and your manager to share successes or challenges your clients are facing. There isn’t a formal daily meeting - it’s more of a chance to ensure the team are sharing ways to drive success and get relevant updates
Your manager will share potential strategies that will help grow the business, and you’ll get to input and give your opinion. In a small team, your voice is really heard, and you get a chance to impact the way the team functions
Once you’ve had the updates, now it’s really your time to shine. You do what you do best, by going to see your clients. Visits can vary between 11 and 18 a day, dependent on the type of clients you’re going to see that day and the latest Covid -19 restrictions
In between visits, you may start looking at planning for an event you’re helping to lead on, to further increase the visibility of Nestlé’s presence in the nutrition market. Whether it’s an MOH led event, or one that Nestlé is driving, you’ll get the chance to lead projects and events outside of your day to day activities
You look at how competitors are performing in the pharmacies or other health care centers, and ensure you’re sharing this intel with your colleagues
Before you finish for the day, you send reminders to a group of clients who you’re hosting for a round table discussion next week
