About the Opportunity – Consultant

You will be part of a fast-growing, PE-backed business that enables motivated, high-performing individuals to make an impact and contribute to the company’s growth. In this role, you will apply your therapeutic, clinical and commercial understanding to support the development and commercialization strategies of our clients’ assets and portfolios. You will help project teams generate insight-led recommendations that enable leaders at top biopharma companies to “see around the corner” and make confident, well-informed business decisions.
