Chelsey’s Answer

Medical laboratory technologist or scientist could be a good start for you. The majority of the jobs in the field are not research based, you would need a masters or PhD for that but you could start working in the field with an associate’s degree or bachelor’s degree.

Joseph’s Answer

We've not got a lot to go on as to what job you're talking about. I see you asked about "sales manager" in another question, so could be that? However, you've tagged medicine, science and research, so I'm guessing you might be looking at something more specific?

Even making the assumption that it's the "sales manager" title within a medical or scientific field you're talking about, the answer is complicated by the fact that the title will mean different things in different companies, and to tell what jobs with vague titles like that are really about you need to look into the job descriptions.

In many companies, "manager" in a job title implies a level of management responsibility and seniority - so a sales manager is a manager responsible for at least part of a sales department, and might otherwise be known by titles like "Head of Sales", "Sales Supervisor", Lead Sales Rep", "Senior Sales Associate" or other similar titles. That would likely be a role much further into your career rather than somewhere where you start.

However, many companies simply add "manager" to a job title just to say the person conducts or "manages" some particular element of business, and it's therefore not always an indication of seniority. A "sales manager" in that context may be referred to elsewhere as a "sales administrator", "sales representative", "product demonstrator" or a range of other titles. Particularly in more scientific sales roles, technical or other specific aspects may be emphasised; options like "sales engineer", "technical products advisor", "chemical products sales representative" or similar. One I've seen but can cause some confusion is "applications engineer" - that can mean helping the customers understand the best application of the product, and may be completely unrelated to software application engineering.
