• Participate in the development of best practices for scaling engagement, onboarding, and long‑term client success.
• Represent the voice of the customer internally, ensuring Solstice continues to build solutions that transform commercial operations for enterprise pharma.
• Help build the internal infrastructure for a world‑class client success function, from processes to playbooks to feedback loops.

• Strong commercial acumen. You have the ability to learn or master the life sciences commercial strategy.
