About Jack Schechtman

SALES PROFESSIONAL, EXPERIENCED LEADER AND ENTREPRENEUR Responsible and self-motivated sales representative with a demonstrated history working in the biotechnology industry. I have been able to deliver sales growth with a high degree of proactivity, organization and decisive capacity, prioritizing relationship building, driving new business, building on existing relationships, and delivering superior customer service. As a Cal Poly - SLO graduate with a B.S. in Biological Sciences, I have gained critical thinking and problem-solving skills and applied them with direct experience working in both medical and technical sales roles which have allowed me to provide advanced technology and services that improve human health, advance patient care, develop/improve pharmaceuticals, and help researchers with their current studies. This same education and professional experience has prepared me for my current role within a fast-moving, innovative, and growing biotechnology company. Currently, as a West Coast Territory Sales Manager, I have become proficient in initiating and expanding business opportunities, project management, and customer relationships all across my territory. My strong life science expertise in molecular biology and genetics has allowed me to provide innovative solutions to help solve customers\' problems and needs. I\'ve discovered a passion for engagement, building relationships with researchers and labs, domestic and International team collaboration, and working hand-in-hand with life science professionals by providing them with the resources and technical support they need.CORE SKILLSB2B & B2C Sales | Customer Relations | Salesforce | Lead Generation | Territory Management | Solution Development | Marketing | Competitor Research | Product knowledge - Nucleic Acid Purification, DNA, RNA, Protein, NGS, Automation | Office 365 Suite Proficiency
