246 open pharmaceutical sales roles in and around New York, NY, taken straight from employers' own careers pages and refreshed twice a day.
Pharmaceutical sales covers chemical drugs, the medicines the FDA approves as drugs rather than licensing as biologics, and the healthcare professionals or organizations involved in their use. The medicine decides the industry, not what a company calls itself: a posting that names its medicines is filed by them, and one that names both kinds, or none, takes the kind of medicine its employer mainly sells, unless it sells vaccines, all of them biologics, so a role at a company that calls itself biotech can be filed here and a role at a drug maker can be filed under biotech. At a company we file under more than one industry, such as Johnson & Johnson or Abbott, a division the posting names places the role, which is how Abbott’s nutrition roles can be filed here, and so does a product the posting names for the role, which is how Bausch + Lomb’s dry eye medicine reps can be. Failing both, at a few of these companies, Johnson & Johnson and Abbott among them, the posting’s own words choose among that company’s industries, and where they say little, the company’s main industry stands, as it does at the others and where a posting names no division but products from two of the company’s industries. A role placed among a company’s medicines is then filed by the kind of medicine, here or under biotech. Kenvue, Haleon and Perrigo, which make over-the-counter medicines, are filed here too, and so is Reckitt, for its infant formula. Roles can involve physician offices, specialty practices or health systems. A home-based position can still require territory travel. The tables below describe the postings currently on this board, while each employer’s listing provides its specific customers and requirements.

As of Nov 6, 2026, 79 matching postings state a minimum of zero to two years, while 23 do not state a minimum. These are stated experience requirements, not a guarantee of entry-level eligibility. A posting can require industry experience, a credential or a particular background separately; read the employer's qualifications before applying.
The median advertised annual base is $141,165, calculated from 230 qualifying postings as of Nov 6, 2026. This uses each published range's midpoint and excludes hourly rates and on-target earnings. It measures advertised base pay, not take-home pay or first-year total compensation. 94% publish a numeric pay range of any kind.
The largest matching employer counts as of Nov 6, 2026 are Syneos Health (46), Novartis (12), Aquestive Therapeutics (11). These are currently advertised postings on MedSales Radar, not a complete census of hiring or proof of expansion. Counts can change after an employer refreshes its careers site; use the linked listings to check current requirements and locations.
3 of 246 matching postings are flagged remote as of Nov 6, 2026, meaning worked from home with no field territory; 119 state a travel percentage. A field role run from a home office is not counted as remote, because it involves customer visits and a defined territory. A missing remote flag does not establish an office requirement, and an unstated travel percentage does not mean no travel. Confirm territory and travel expectations with the employer.
