Take on the UK and grow it
We are looking for an experienced life science sales person to own our UK business and grow it. You would run the territory, sell our full range, and have our marketing team feeding you leads. It is a real chance to build something, with the freedom to do it your way.
About Assay Genie
We started Assay Genie in 2017, two scientists who were tired of how hard it was to get good reagents quickly. Since then we have grown into a global brand with offices in Dublin and London, 160,000 products and customers in more than 70 countries. With over 1000 citations, our antibodies, assays and kits are used in leading academic and industry labs and have been cited in over 1,000 publications. We are still founder-led, still growing fast, and the UK is one of our biggest opportunities right now.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The opportunity
This is a hunting role. The UK has real potential and we need someone to go after it: winning new customers across academia, biotech and pharma, growing the accounts we already have, and selling our full range of reagents. You will have warm customers to build on and leads coming from marketing so you can put all your energy into winning and growing direct UK business. We will give you the autonomy to run it as your own.
Your remit
- Win business across UK academia, biotech and pharma.
- Grow the customers we already have and sell them more of the range.
- Take deals the whole way, from first call to close.
- Keep your pipeline and CRM in good shape, and follow up leads quickly.
- Get out to labs, conferences and events, and tell us what you are hearing.

Who you are

- A science background, a life-science degree is ideal.
- Someone who wants to own a territory and run it, not be managed closely.
- Comfortable taking a consultative sale through to close.
- Ideally based within reach of the London, Oxford and Cambridge corridor, with a full UK driving licence and the right to work in the UK.
Why you will love it here
- You own a high-potential territory, with the founders behind you.
- Very competitive base, plus a great commission structure, car allowance, pension and benefits.
- A fast, founder-led company where decisions happen quickly and your work matters.
- Room to grow into senior or leadership roles as we scale.
