Your tasks include:

• Visits to hospital and home care facilities to execute product demonstrations that ensures the safe and effective use of Smith & Nephew’s products, including establishing knowledge of available Clinical Evidence.
• Promote new and existing products and ensure each client has the best solution to match their current and future needs.
