 The Role  

We’re seeking an individual who is a driven and curious Associate Business Development Director to drive new account growth and support business development across Inizio Medical’s Real-World iNSIGHTS (RWI) suite of products. The RWI team specializes in subscription healthcare provider (HCP) insight gathering for life-sciences companies that are innovating across healthcare with new treatments, diagnostics, and medical devices. RWI programs are attended by community and rural HCPs in the US and regional providers across the world. Pharma companies can subscribe to RWI programs to learn valuable insights from HCPs who are frequently left out of pharma clinical development. Successful candidates will be curious, independent thinkers who can initiate and drive strong partnerships among pharma industry professionals. Our team is unique, encouraging, and above all, collaborative – if you’re interested in exploring what’s possible with RWI and have experience in business development for medical communications, we’re ready to listen.  

Key Responsibilities

• Excellent communication, negotiation, presentation, and stakeholder-management skills – the ideal candidate will have a natural aptitude for both listening and speaking to diverse audiences (industry professionals, HCPs)  

• Strong strategic thinking and experience in medical communications or pharma required to understand market trends and client preferences  

• Undergraduate or graduate emphasis in the life-sciences is preferred but not required – candidates will be evaluated based on their individual interests and experiences
