• Analyse findings and distil them into clear insights and high-impact recommendations.
• Contribute to client deliverables, meetings, and presentations.
• Support proposals and business development initiatives.
• Mentor new team members and help shape a collaborative, high-performance culture.

• Confident communicator, resilient under pressure, and motivated to deliver quality work.
• Commercially aware, with an understanding of pharma/biotech product development.
• Happy to work adjusted hours for US-based clients.

Why Join Us?
