Job Summary
We are looking for a highly capable Sales & Operations Manager to support the growth and day-to-day operations of a consulting business focused on the Life Sciences industry.
This is a hybrid role combining B2B business development and sales with recruitment and operational management. Approximately half of the role will focus on identifying, researching, and engaging prospective life sciences clients across Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, and France. The other half will focus on supporting active recruitment mandates, maintaining the CRM and candidate database, sourcing consultants, preparing documentation, and ensuring operational processes run smoothly.
The ideal candidate is both a hunter and an operator—someone who is comfortable with outbound sales but equally comfortable managing databases, sourcing candidates, preparing documents, and maintaining operational rigor.
