International Sales Manager - #49193

At Cordys Analytics, we’re building the infrastructure that enables scalable, reliable AI-driven cardiovascular diagnostics across European healthcare systems.

Our platform helps clinicians detect structural and functional cardiac conditions directly from ECG data, including heart failure, myocardial infarction, and arrhythmias, enabling earlier and more accurate diagnosis at scale.

We’re looking for an International Sales Manager to help build Cordys’ commercial footprint across Europe, with an initial focus on private clinics, diagnostic centres, cardiology groups, healthcare platforms, and selected hospital partners.

This is a hands-on new business role for someone who enjoys building markets, opening doors, and turning early customer conversations into long-term commercial contracts. You will work closely with the founding team to identify priority markets, build target lists, approach prospects, qualify opportunities, manage sales conversations, and help shape Cordys’ international go-to-market approach.

This is not a role where you simply follow an existing sales playbook. You will help create the playbook: which customer segments to prioritise, which countries to enter first, which partnerships to pursue, how to position Cordys, and how to convert pilots into recurring revenue.

We are a small team with ambitious plans. The solutions we sell operate in a regulated medical environment, so trust, credibility, and a strong understanding of customer needs are fundamental parts of how we work.

If you enjoy combining international sales, healthcare innovation, and real-world clinical impact, we’d like to hear from you.

What you’ll work on

• Build Cordys’ international sales pipeline across selected European markets.
• Identify and approach prospects such as private clinics, diagnostic centres, cardiology groups, healthcare platforms, and selected hospital partners.
• Lead outbound sales activities, including prospecting, email outreach, LinkedIn outreach, calls, introductions, and follow-up.
• Qualify leads and understand customer workflows, pain points, decision-making processes, and commercial potential.
• Manage sales conversations from first contact to proposal, negotiation, and closing.
• Convert pilots and early customer conversations into long-term commercial contracts.
• Help build repeatable sales motions for priority markets such as Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands.
• Work closely with the founding team to define country priorities, customer segments, pricing approaches, and go-to-market strategy.
• Build relationships with senior stakeholders in cardiology, diagnostics, digital health, and healthcare operations.
• Represent Cordys in conversations with healthcare providers, partners, investors, and ecosystem organisations.
• Help prepare commercial materials, proposals, presentations, and customer-specific business cases.
• Collaborate with operations, product, clinical, and regulatory colleagues to ensure customer expectations are realistic and deliverable.
• Track pipeline activity, customer feedback, market learnings, and follow-up actions in a structured way.

• The opportunity to help shape Cordys’ commercial strategy from an early stage.
• Direct access to founders, clinicians, AI experts, and operational decision-makers.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to build trust with senior stakeholders.
• A structured and proactive approach to prospecting, qualification, follow-up, and deal management.

• Comfortable working in an early-stage environment where priorities evolve and ownership matters.
