Spine sales recruiting

We place spine reps and managers who understand complex constructs, navigation and enabling technology, and who earn a spine surgeon's trust.

About spine sales

Spine is one of the most technical device categories to sell. Cases run long, constructs vary from surgeon to surgeon, and enabling technology such as navigation and robotics adds another layer the rep must master. Many spine businesses also rely on independent distributor networks alongside direct reps.

We look for people who can manage inventory and case logistics as carefully as the relationship, and who understand how spine programs are evaluated by hospital administrators as well as surgeons.

Who they sell to: Orthopaedic and neurosurgical spine surgeons, OR teams, hospital administrators and value-analysis committees.

What we look for

  • Case experience across cervical, thoracolumbar or minimally invasive procedures.
  • Familiarity with navigation, imaging or robotic systems used in spine.
  • Experience in a direct model, a distributor model, or both, depending on your structure.
  • Inventory and set management discipline.

What makes these hires hard

  • The pool of experienced spine reps in any one territory is small.
  • Surgeon loyalty often follows the rep, so the hire can move revenue in either direction.
  • Compensation structures differ widely between direct and distributor models.

Roles we fill in spine

  • Territory Manager

    The territory manager owns revenue in a defined geography. We recruit territory managers who can grow it, not just maintain it.

  • Sales Representative

    We recruit medical device and dental sales representatives, from associate reps to senior individual contributors.

  • Clinical Specialist

    We recruit clinical specialists who support procedures, train clinicians and help sales teams win and keep accounts.

  • Distributor and Channel Manager

    We recruit channel managers who build and manage distributor and independent agent networks for medical device and dental manufacturers.

Questions hiring managers ask

Do you recruit for independent spine distributors?

Yes. We recruit for manufacturers' direct teams and for the distributor partners who represent them.

Can you find reps with robotics or navigation experience?

Yes, when that experience exists in your market. We tell you early if the pool is thin and what the trade-offs are.

How long does a spine search usually take?

Our average is 60 days to hire across searches; specialised spine roles in smaller markets can take longer, and we will say so at kickoff.
