Who is BASE life science?

Founded in 2015, BASE life science is a business and technology consulting company working exclusively in life sciences, built on a simple purpose: grow our people, and deliver real impact for our customers

We don't think AI is a feature you bolt onto existing systems — we think it's the layer through which a life sciences company's strategy actually gets executed, end to end. Most of the industry is still proving AI can do one task at a time, function by function, pilot by pilot. We're building toward something bigger: AI that runs across clinical, regulatory, quality, and commercial work instead of stopping at the edges of a single application

With headquarters in Denmark and offices across Spain, Switzerland, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, and the US, we work with top-10 pharma and ambitious biotechs alike, and with technology partners including Veeva, Salesforce, IQVIA, Google, AWS, Microsoft, and Amass — turning that belief into deployed, compliant, sellable solutions, not slideware

At BASE, you work on meaningful, complex challenges at the intersection of technology, science, and business. We trust our people with real responsibility and support them in turning ambition into impact — grounded in five core values: team spirit, trust, openness, ambition, and execution

• Ambition, encouraged through ownership and continuous learning
• Execution — we focus on delivering solutions that work in practice
• Openness — your ideas are heard, challenged constructively, and supported as you grow
• Flexible ways of working, built on trust, autonomy, and balance
• The opportunity to shape a practice, not just staff one

Alongside this, we offer:

• Support for health and wellbeing, covering physical, mental, and social needs
• Flexible ways of working, built on trust, autonomy, and balance
• Ongoing learning and professional development throughout your career
• A modern work setup, with the tools and equipment needed to do great work
• Recognition of performance and impact, linked to contribution and results
• The opportunity to work on challenges that make a meaningful difference for patients and healthcare systems worldwide
