CHRISTINA: Sales Associate job profile

Christina's photo Name: Christina
Education: University of Kansas
Current Title: Sales Associate
Business Unit: McKesson Provider Technologies

Describing McKesson’s size and scope to people unfamiliar with us can be a challenge. But Christina has found a way: “Everyone has been to the doctor’s office or hospital. I explain how our products and services fit into their lives. I tell my friends and family that I work for a company where I make an impact on patient safety and care, reduce the cost of healthcare, increase clinician satisfaction and more.”

As a sales associate within the McKesson Provider Technologies division, Christina creates leads for the sales team through telemarketing projects and customer communication. “I constantly develop my healthcare and sales knowledge and skills. In the next year, I’ll get the invaluable opportunity to be a member of an implementation team.” Such opportunities are standard at McKesson—and they’re part of the reason Christina chose us. “I knew McKesson was interested in my personal and professional development and was willing to invest the time, energy and money to help me succeed.”

Christina gets support from her mentor and coworkers. “Even while working hard for our customers, my mentor takes time out of her extremely busy day to teach me about healthcare and my job. In fact, everyone I’ve met has been kind and helpful during my development. We also have a lot of fun together!”
