What You’ll Do
- Own follow-through on BD pipeline: track active deal workstreams across enterprise, academic, and biotech partnerships, ensure nothing stalls, and surface the right opportunities to leadership at the right time.
- Manage and build investor relations: maintain relationships with 70+ existing investors through regular updates, slide decks, and follow-ups, and drive new investor relationships forward alongside the CEO and Head of Commercial.
- Triage enterprise, pharma, and investor correspondence with sound commercial judgement.
- Coordinate and prepare for high-stakes calls and meetings across time zones, ensuring the team walks into every conversation fully briefed.
- Draft and refine investor communications, partnership proposals, and internal updates on behalf of the Commercial Team.
- Build and maintain a commercial system: create structure around how BD opportunities are categorised, tracked, and reported internally (e.g. a lean CRM).
- Coordinate cross-functional deal activity across organisations and teams, keeping everyone aligned.
- Analyse the science behind partnerships: evaluate incoming opportunities with enough scientific literacy to triage what’s worth pursuing and brief leadership accordingly.
- Join calls with partners and investors as a credible representative of Molecule when needed.
Who You Are
- Commercially driven, with experience such as tech sales at a startup, BD at a health-tech company, or self-taught commercial skills alongside academic work; you understand pipeline, follow-up, and closing deals.
- Not typically corporate: preferably from a biotech or startup environment, or someone who hustled through a top programme and now seeks ownership.
- Highly organised and relentless about follow-through, ensuring relationships and deals don’t fall through the cracks.
- A strong communicator, comfortable drafting board-level investor memos and speaking with lab partners or KOLs.
- Thrives in complexity and managing multiple priorities across deals, relationships, and internal coordination.
- Has global flexibility, ideally willing to spend the first several months in Berlin for onboarding and relationship-building with the core team.
