About Merck

Merck & Co. (Rahway, New Jersey) hires sellers for two quite different customer bases. On the human side, oncology sales representatives and specialists call on cancer practices in a territory, and vaccine customer representatives cover physicians, pharmacists, immunization managers, health departments and hospitals; outside the US, key account managers handle hospital and national immunisation programme accounts. Its Animal Health division sells companion animal products to veterinary clinics, shelters and corporate practice groups, and swine, ruminant and aquaculture products to producers alongside distribution partners, which is why many of its overseas openings sit in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Germany.
