Responsibilities:

• Building and managing a qualified pipeline of life sciences prospects (CDMOs, CROs, biotech, pharma, med device, diagnostics, and eClinical companies), targeting marketing and commercial decision-makers at the VP and C-suite level
• Running discovery calls that actually uncover the client's business problem, not just their project list. You diagnose before you prescribe
• Leading proposal and pitch development in partnership with the VP of Commercial Strategy. You do not just oversee the deck, you shape the narrative. You know why the story matters, not just how to build the slides

• Representing emagineHealth at industry conferences (CPHI, BIO, SCOPE, and others) with the goal of building a network of executives who already know us before they need us
