Job Description

We are partnering with a rapidly growing preclinical CRO that specializes in, in vivo and in vitro services. To support their continued growth across North America, they are looking to hire a Business Development Leader to join their commercial team.

This is a remote position with occasional travel to conferences and client sites.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Identify, pursue, and close new business opportunities within biotech and pharmaceutical companies.
  • Own the full sales cycle from lead generation through proposal, contract negotiation, and closing.
  • Translate complex preclinical offerings into compelling value propositions for scientific and executive stakeholders.
  • Maintain a robust pipeline and manage activity using CRM platforms such as Salesforce or Hubspot.
  • Represent the company at industry events, conferences, and client meetings.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a Life Sciences field (e.g., Biology, Pharmacology, Toxicology, Biomedical Sciences).
  • 5+ years of business development or sales experience in the life sciences sector, ideally within a CRO or preclinical services provider.
  • Strong understanding of in vivo and in vitro models and how to communicate scientific value to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated success in managing long sales cycles and consistently hitting or exceeding revenue targets.
  • Hunter mentality — proactive, persistent, and comfortable with cold outreach and prospecting.

What’s on Offer:

  • A key commercial role within an agile and fast-scaling CRO with a high-quality scientific reputation.
  • Strong autonomy and visibility within the organization.
  • Competitive compensation, commission, and performance-based incentives.
  • Opportunity to shape business strategy and grow with a high-impact team.

If you have a passion for science and a drive to build lasting partnerships in the preclinical space, we’d love to hear from you.
