About Alcon
Two divisions with separate sales forces make up Alcon's selling: Surgical, which places intraocular lenses, phaco and vitreoretinal equipment and Vision Suite diagnostic and visualization capital (Argos, LuxOR, Ingenuity 3D) with cataract surgeons, eye clinics and operating rooms, and Vision Care, which sells contact lenses, lens care and dry eye products to eye care practitioners and optical chains, with a pharmaceutical team detailing glaucoma and dry-eye prescriptions. Its US openings are almost all Vision Care: five account managers working practitioner offices in Dallas, Fort Worth, North Richland Hills, southwest Atlanta and Pensacola on quarterly quotas and call reach and frequency targets, an inside rep who runs a territory by phone and must be ready to relocate within a year, a dry-eye pharmaceutical specialist for Chicago and its north suburbs, and a division manager over the pharma specialists in Connecticut and nearby New York. Fort Worth headquarters adds sales operations analysts who process wholesaler chargebacks, a commercial analytics manager, an OTC trade strategy lead and two IT roles with no selling in them, which brings the US to 14 of its 33 sales-titled openings. The other 19 are abroad: Germany has three Surgical roles (a southeast regional sales manager and two Vision Suite capital sellers covering Bremen to Cologne and Bavaria with Thuringia), Mexico, the Philippines and Korea two each, and the rest are single seats such as a Stockholm rep with more than 130 optical accounts, a Melbourne business development contract, a key account trainee for Spain and Portugal and a Romanian field sales manager over four business development managers.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
