 Interested in a sales career within laboratory
equipment? Do you know about the industry and the roles
available?
This is a large export earner for
the UK, with annual overseas sales of healthcare applications
of at least £375 million. Goods are exported
to most countries in the world, but especially the
US and
Germany. Products are used in such areas
as laboratory medicine, pathology, drug discovery, disease management and genomic
research.
The largest single market sector in the UK for use of
Laboratory Products is the pharmaceutical industry, with
a 36.6% share of the total market, followed by the NHS
with 28.3%. Government and higher education is the third
largest market, with a 17.6% share of the total.
In the industry sectors, the pharmaceutical industry
is showing the highest growth, primarily among small
to medium sized companies. The chemicals sector is small
and growing modestly, and there is concern that growth
in R&D is not matching that of equivalent companies
overseas.
Growth in the public sector markets has been restricted
by funding cuts and budgetary constraints — particularly
in capital spending — but the Private Finance Initiative
(PFI) in the health sector and the increasing partnership
between industry and education, is likely to increase funding
and opportunities.
The market as a whole has seen a large number
of acquisitions and mergers and is increasingly dominated
by a smaller number of large companies with wide product
ranges and sophisticated distribution systems.
If you believe you are of the highest calibre then you
can earn the high rewards available by excelling in this
demanding growth area. Click here for information about
