Job description

Associate Consultant - Entry-Level Technology Consulting (Life Sciences)

Remote Full-time $80k – $80k

Start your career as an Associate Consultant in a development program designed to accelerate your career - no prior consulting or life sciences experience required. This is not your traditional business analyst role. At Veeva, you’ll work directly with pharmaceutical and biotech companies to solve complex business challenges using cutting-edge technology. Learn fast, take on real responsibility, and make a tangible impact from day one.

Candidates should only apply to one Generation Veeva program.

The Role

We are hiring recent graduates into our Consultant Development Program (CDP) - an entry-level consulting role designed to accelerate your career.

In this high-impact, customer-facing position, you’ll work directly with pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device companies to implement Veeva’s technology and drive their business forward. Unlike traditional consulting roles that focus heavily on theory, you will work hands-on to design, configure, and deliver tangible technology solutions that customers use every day.

We believe in empowering high potential people to achieve excellence. You’ll be hands-on from day one – learning fast, contributing early, and taking on meaningful responsibility. We don't require a background in life sciences or technology. You bring your drive and hunger to learn; we’ll provide the training. This program will build the core consulting and technical expertise you need for long-term career success.

* Now hiring for our July and October 2026 start dates.

What You'll Do

• Work directly with customers to innovate with our technology and improve their business operations.
• Be hands-on and become the experts on Veeva’s technology – set up and tailor our software to solve our customers’ unique business challenges
• Partner with project teams and customers through problem-solving, solution design, workshops, and project management.

REQUIREMENTS | We are looking for graduates who have:

• Drive: Thrive in a challenging, intense environment that rewards initiative and rapid learning.
• Curiosity: Desire to be hands-on with software and master new technologies.
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Analytical Mindset: Strong critical thinking skills and proven track record of academic performance in any major.
• Integrity: Veeva is a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) and a “do the right thing” company and we expect that from all employees.
• Work Ethic: A commitment to excellence and passion for working hard to achieve results.
• Travel: Willingness to travel as needed (up to 20-30% of the time).
• Experience: Recent university graduate (up to 2 years postgraduate experience maximum)

• Application: Submit your resume, short cover letter, and take a personality test.

• Interview & Case: A 60-minute interview followed by a case exercise. You will have three days to prepare for the case exercise.
