Job description

Beghou brings over three decades of experience helping life sciences companies optimize their commercialization through strategic insight, advanced analytics, and technology. From developing go-to-market strategies and building foundational data analytics infrastructures to leveraging artificial intelligence to improve customer insights and engagement, Beghou helps life sciences companies maximize performance across their portfolios. Beghou also deploys proprietary and third-party technology solutions to help companies forecast performance, design territories, manage customer data, organize, and report on medical and commercial data, and more. Headquartered in Evanston, Illinois, we have 10 global offices.

Our mission is to bring together analytical minds and innovative technology to help life sciences companies navigate the complexity of health care and improve patient outcomes.

As an Associate Consultant, you will have the opportunity to work with and learn from senior managers and partners, collaborating together to develop, achieve, and succeed with every project. We have had steady growth throughout our history because the people we hire are committed not only to delivering quality results for our clients, but also to becoming leaders in sales and marketing analytics.

Beghou allows you to develop a wide range of skills across many practice areas, giving you a greater understanding of the life sciences and consulting industries. Ideal candidates for the Associate Consultant role demonstrate leadership potential, integrity, problem-solving skills, and the communication skills necessary to work with clients and people at all levels of our firm.

We'll Trust you to:

• Develop code to ingest, clean, and process life sciences client data
• Execute data processing tasks, troubleshooting errors and ensuring accuracy in both codes and final deliverables while meeting deadlines for clients
• Identify key metrics to generate valuable insights for advanced client reports, including data visualizations in dashboards and presentations
• Engage directly with clients, solving complex problems and delivering innovative solutions
• Collaborate with your team to provide strategic solutions for salesforce sizing, territory alignment, and incentive compensation
• Take initiative to contribute to ad-hoc projects, addressing unique client + internal team needs

You'll need to have:

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree with 0 to 2 years’ relevant professional experience (candidates with a PhD may apply to our Consultant position). While we do not specify a list of majors, we seek candidates who demonstrate strong analytical, problem-solving, and quantitative aptitude through coursework or other experience.
• Strong academic track record
• Ability to travel up to 10%
• Proficiency using Microsoft Office products, including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to learn quickly and demonstrate active listening skills
• Strong organizational and time management skills
• Ability to work effectively with others and adapt quickly
• Basic coding skills (SAS, SQL, Python, VBA, etc.) and/or knowledge of data visualization software such as Tableau or Power BI, preferred

Who we're looking for:

• At Beghou, we welcome individuals from all backgrounds who can bring diverse perspectives and experiences to our team. We’re seeking driven, curious, and solution-oriented individuals. Ideal candidates will demonstrate:
• Leadership Potential: You’re proactive, take ownership of your work, and inspire others to do the same

• Strong Communication Skills: You can articulate ideas clearly and build strong relationships with clients and colleagues alike
• Technical proficiency: You possess coding skills in languages such as Python, R, SQL or similar, with the ability to apply these skills to data modeling, analysis and problem solving

The wage range for this role takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including, but not limited to, skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs. At Beghou, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role, and compensation decisions depend on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current range is $70,000 to $85,000.

We are currently unable to consider candidates who require, or will require in the future, sponsorship for work authorization . Applicants must be authorized to work in the US on a permanent and ongoing basis without the need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization.

At Beghou, you'll join a highly collaborative, values-driven team where technical excellence, analytical rigor, and personal growth converge. Whether you're passionate about AI innovation, building commercialization strategies, or shaping the next generation of data-first solutions in life sciences, this is a place to make an impact!
