The role

Day to day, you\’ll navigate complex and technical markets, driving commercial activity from lead generation to deal closure. You\’ll combine scientific knowledge with business acumen, and work alongside technical and executive team members to shape the product positioning in the market. The team is based in Newcastle, so ideally you\’ll travel in a couple of days a week to encourage knowledge transfer and team integration.

The person

Ideally, you\’ll have:

• Either a Master\’s degree or PhD in Chemistry or Life Sciences field;
• 2+ years\’ commercial or industry experience;
