The Director Business Development is responsible for driving new client acquisition across Valeris’ patient access portfolio, partnering closely with strategy, marketing, commercial operations, business operations, product, design & implementation, legal, finance and executive leadership to build compelling, tailored solutions that win new business and expand Valeris’ footprint in the market.

This role is critical to Valeris’ long‑term success: our ability to become a patient access market leader depends on expanding Valeris products and services across a broader client base, diversifying revenue streams, and building a healthier, more resilient business. The Director Business Development is expected to be a primary driver of this growth, personally accountable for expanding Valeris’ client base.

Personally own and execute proactive prospecting and outreach to target life sciences manufacturers, leveraging multiple channels (Salesforce, referrals, industry events, conferences) to build and manage a robust new‑business pipeline.

Develop and execute a comprehensive new‑business strategy that identifies and targets high‑value market segments, therapeutic areas, and ideal customer profiles within the life sciences industry.

Build relationships with key decision‑makers at target manufacturers, and represent Valeris at industry events, conferences, and forums to build brand awareness and generate pipeline.

Own accurate, ongoing revenue forecasting for the new‑business pipeline, tracking conversion rates, deal stage, and expected close timing by prospect and client.

Work cross‑functionally with strategy, marketing, commercial operations, business operations, product, design & implementation, legal, finance and executive leadership to develop winning solutions and remove barriers to close.

Maintain active involvement in competitive positioning and market intelligence, sharing insights with marketing, strategy and product teams.
