equally comfortable drafting a board-level investor memo and hopping on a call with a lab partner or KOL
You thrive in complexity and are energised by managing multiple priorities across deals, relationships, and internal coordination simultaneously
You have global flexibility
ideally willing to spend the first several months in Berlin for onboarding and relationship-building with the core team
Nice to Have
You have a have a scientific background
ideally a Master’s or PhD in life sciences, biotech, chemistry, or a related field
and you can engage credibly with researchers and pharma partners on the substance of what they do

Experience working across US and European markets and navigating international stakeholder relationships
Interest in or exposure to decentralised science, Web3, or token-based funding models
