About the Role

The Company is seeking a Director of Business Development to join their team. The successful candidate will be responsible for driving new client acquisition within the life sciences industry, with a focus on patient access. This role demands a strategic, self-motivated individual with a proven track record in enterprise sales, particularly in the context of opening new business and nurturing long-term client partnerships. The Director will be the primary driver of growth, expected to own and execute proactive prospecting, and lead complex sales cycles to build and manage a robust new-business pipeline. Essential functions include demand generation, ecosystem expert profiling, and revenue forecasting. The ideal candidate will have at least 10 years' experience in a direct new-business hunting role, ideally within life sciences, pharmaceutical services, or healthcare commercialization, and a Bachelor's degree in a related field. Candidates for the Director of Business Development position at the company should possess executive-level communication skills, a strategic mindset, and the ability to operate in competitive markets. The role requires a professional with a strong personal selling approach, comfortable with cold outreach, and adept at managing multi-stakeholder sales processes. A background in market access, patient services, or specialty pharmaceuticals is preferred, as is experience in a growth-stage company. The Director will be expected to work closely with cross-functional teams to develop tailored solutions and remove barriers to close, and to maintain a high level of integrity and ethical standards. The position is critical to the company's long-term success, and the Director will play a key role in expanding the company's products and services across a broader client base.
