Jeff Hester Email & Phone Number

I began my career in sales 30 years ago. Five years into my career I realized how much passion can impact your professional success. After spending several years selling products in which I had no connection or interest I took a sales position with Sanofi Pasteur, a world leading vaccine manufacturer, and my outlook on sales and a career changed forever. I have spent the past 25 years of my career working for a company with the mission, "No one suffers or dies from a vaccine preventable disease." As a father of four children, I connected with our products and became a sales leader within my division, region and company. A good amount of my success is a direct result of sales leadership and coaching within our organization. Working as a Vaccine Specialists in the Washington, DC area I began to realize the demand for a meningococcal vaccine beyond traditional travel. In collaboration with our home office, I was given the opportunity to pilot a selling strategy into the college market. Our success led to the creation of a new sales force resulting in my first opportunity to lead a team of sales professionals. My professional career has provided me with several strong leaders and mentors that have helped me develop my leadership style. I have been fortunate enough to have led several award winning teams and take pride in helping others succeed.Recently, I joined the VaxServe business unit of Sanofi Pasteur to build a national sales team. Our mission as a specialty vaccine distributor is to sell vaccines into large health systems and implement business solutions that help our customers become more efficient in their acquisition, management and distribution of our products.Professional Skills: Consultative Selling, Strategic Collaboration, Project Management, Sales Coaching
