Jobbeschreibung

Work Your Magic with us!

Ready to explore, break barriers, and discover more? We know you've got big plans - so do we! Our colleagues across the globe love innovating with science and technology to enrich people's lives with our solutions in Healthcare, Life Science, and Electronics. Together, we dream big and are passionate about caring for our rich mix of people, customers, patients, and planet. That's why we are always looking for curious minds that see themselves imagining the unimaginable with us.

Your role:We love consulting! Do you? As the company's internal consultancy, we drive projects across all our business sectors. Our approx. 75 highly qualified colleagues from external consultancies, major industry players, and top academic institutions advise our business functions on the successful design and implementation of global strategy as well as business and operations development to enable sustainable growth. We are truly an interdisciplinary, international, and diverse team based at our HQ in Darmstadt, in the Greater Boston Area (USA) as well as in Singapore. Driven by our passion for consulting, we work closely with internal clients at the senior management level on a wide range of local, regional, and global cross-functional topics. Beyond providing consulting services, we act as a talent incubator for our Group with a considerable number of successful transitions into the business every year. Combining both, people development and consulting excellence, we contribute to the company's success and will accelerate your career as a future leader in our company!

You will work as part of project teams for on average 3-4 years, providing business consulting, primarily for our Healthcare and Life Science sectors, before transitioning to a management position within our company. Typical projects can range from strategy development on sector, franchise or country level to more operational projects in various functions (Commercial, R&D, Operations, etc.). As a partner and colleague, you support projects ranging from conceptualization to execution during this time, inspiring change throughout the organization. Given our size and collaborative culture, we work in very flat team structures. As an employer, we stand for equal opportunities and value diversity.
Our approach differs from external consulting. We offer:

• Empowerment: You have full responsibility for your projects from proposal development to steering committee presentations, and project closure. Project assignments are matched to your individual development goals and reflect your level of seniority. You will be able to directly experience the impact your work has on our business serving customers and patients worldwide.
• Career development: Your delivery in intellectually challenging consulting projects leads to high visibility to leaders in the business sectors and allows you to gain expert knowledge within the functions of your interest and build a deep internal network that will enable your successful transition into a management role within our company.
• Flexibility of work: You will enjoy our high-impact culture, with a focus on efficiency & pragmatism and with less business travel compared to external consulting, promoting flexible and sustainable working. Moreover, we run a hybrid workplace approach with a healthy mix of remote work and office presence.

Who you are:

• Excellent university degree (Master's Degree or equivalent and/or PhD) in Natural Sciences, Medicine, Pharmacy, Health Economics or Business Administration, or related fields
• Proven track record of leading strategic and operational projects, with 4+ years of work experience in a leading management consultancy
• Deep expertise in the pharma, healthcare and/or life sciences industries
• Relevant functional expertise in at least one of the following areas: R&D, Marketing, Sales, Market Access & Pricing, Strategy & Business Development and/or Supply Chain Management & Operations
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, creativity, analytical strength, and process thinking
• Ability to manage cross-functional stakeholders with confidence across hierarchical levels and ability to lead without authority
• Passionate team player with a proactive, self-motivated work approach
• Proficient in English and preferably also in German
• Willingness to relocate to Rhine-Main-Area (i.e. Darmstadt, Frankfurt etc.) is required to allow for regular office presence (2-3 days per week) for close collaboration and network building

What we offer: We are curious minds that come from a broad range of backgrounds, perspectives, and life experiences. We celebrate all dimensions of diversity and believe that it drives excellence and innovation, strengthening our ability to lead in science and technology. We are committed to creating access and opportunities for all to develop and grow at your own pace. Join us in building a culture of inclusion and belonging that impacts millions and empowers everyone to work their magic and champion human progress!
