📋 Description

• As our Associate Director/Director Business Development, you'll be a senior commercial force in the life sciences market - leading high-value, strategic new business for Mystra, our SaaS data and analytics platform. • You'll engage at the most senior levels of pharma and biotech, building the kind of relationships and deals that define Genomics' trajectory. • You'll own and drive the most significant new commercial opportunities across pharma and biotech - building multi-stakeholder relationships at senior and executive level and leading complex, high-value sales cycles from first conversation to contract close. • You'll invest deeply in understanding your clients' long-term R&D and data strategies, positioning Mystra as an essential part of how they work - not just a vendor, but a scientific partner. • You'll bring a sophisticated view of the life sciences landscape, feeding strategic intelligence back into our go-to-market approach and influencing how we position and evolve our platform. • You'll set a high standard for pipeline discipline and forecasting, contributing to strategic reporting that informs senior decision-making across the business. • You'll carry significant internal weight as the voice of the customer — shaping how Product, Science, and Marketing think about the market and ensuring our commercial approach is always grounded in genuine value.
