- Act as an external‑facing coordinator with a project‑management mindset
Background & Experience
- ~5-10 years of industry experience (flexible based on background)
- Strong hands‑on exposure to drug discovery and asset development
- Experience in search, evaluation, or scientific diligence (not traditional deal structuring)
- Ability to critically assess external technologies and translational data
- Comfortable with modern productivity tools and curious about applying AI tools appropriately in life sciences
- Preference to avoid traditional Big 3 management consulting profiles
Nice to Have
- Direct participation in drug discovery programs
- Strong scientific credibility with internal teams
