***Thank you for considering my application for this position.
While my career covers 30 years, I bring more than 22 years of capital healthcare sales experience with GE Healthcare (diagnostic imaging/oncology) and Roche Diagnostics (laboratory diagnostics), supported by a consistent record of exceeding targets and securing long-term customer relationships. My expertise spans business development, competitive account acquisition, and account management, with a focus on delivering functional and financial solutions that shorten sales cycles and drive sustainable growth. I have worked for some additional companies which have expanded my knowledge base.
I have deep experience working with hospital departments, multi-specialty physician groups, and C-suite decision-makers, as well as managing large geographic territories. My background includes selling capital equipment, software, services, reagents, and consumables to hospitals and Integrated Health Networks, coupled with advanced training in strategic selling and negotiation.
Most recently, I have represented an AI company, along with teaching special needs children. However, my goal is to return to executive sales within the healthcare sector, where I can leverage my proven skills, industry knowledge, and established relationships.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience and results-driven approach align with your needs. I can be reached at 504-***-**** or ******@*****.***.
Sincerely,
Robert Trelo
