David Brand

Commercially focused and results-driven sales leader with over 25 years’ experience across MedTech, healthcare, and complex technical sectors. I have a proven record of driving capital and consumable sales growth, building strong territory coverage, and delivering high-impact results for innovative health technologies across Scotland and the North East. Skilled at winning new business and retaining key accounts in both NHS and private healthcare, I excel at engaging surgeons, KOLs, procurement, and clinical teams to drive adoption and deliver value.

My background includes launching disruptive medical devices, managing full sales cycles, and supporting clinical stakeholders with product presentations and solution-focused commercial engagement. I bring deep market knowledge, strategic focus, and a consultative approach - consistently exceeding targets while supporting better patient outcomes. Experienced across regulated sectors, I thrive in dynamic, field-based roles where building relationships and delivering results are key.
