Personal Dermatologist Coverage – Critical Responsibility:

The NSM will be directly responsible for personally visiting and developing relationships with key dermatologists and KOLs across India. She will be required to undertake individual doctor calls, scientific detailing, product presentations, prescription generation and relationship management herself.

The company will provide sales-team manpower for the broader organizational structure as the business expands; however, no separate manpower will be assigned specifically to accompany or replace the NSM for her own doctor/KOL coverage. The NSM is expected to be a hands-on individual contributor as well as a team leader, particularly for high-value doctors, KOLs and strategic accounts.

I would also change the earlier wording “Personally manage top 100 KOLs” to “Personally visit and manage key dermatologists/KOLs”, because that makes the expectation much clearer and avoids any ambiguity.

SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE:

The successful candidate will be expected to deliver measurable improvement in:

National Revenue → Dermatologist Network → Prescription Generation → Market Coverage → Distributor Productivity → Team Performance → Current Product Growth → Profitability

The ideal NSM will ultimately help Medcure Organics build a strong, scalable and professionally managed Pan-India Dermaceutical & Cosmeceutical sales organization.
