Compensation

Full Description

30 000’ View of the Role: If you’re the kind of channel leader who knows how to turn strategic partnerships into real pipeline, and real revenue … this is your moment. The life sciences market is entering a decade of accelerated growth, and the companies that win will be the ones that modernize quality and compliance without slowing innovation. This role puts you at the center of that transformation. You will build and activate a high-impact partner ecosystem across the U.S., working with elite consulting and validation firms to drive adoption inside the most respected pharma and biotech organizations. It’s meaningful work with massive commercial upside: the partnerships you create will help bring therapies to market faster, improve the safety and quality of regulated manufacturing, and ultimately improve lives, while you build one of the strongest partner channels in the industry. About My Client: My retained client is a privately held, global SaaS company serving the world’s most respected pharmaceutical, biotech, and life sciences manufacturers. Their platform sits at the heart of regulated operations, modernizing validation and quality processes that directly affect how quickly and safely therapies move from development to manufacturing and ultimately to patients. This isn’t “nice-to-have software.” It’s technology that supports compliance, product integrity, and patient safety at scale, while helping organizations operate faster, smarter, and with greater confidence. And the impact is incredibly tangible. One enterprise client recently calculated the sustainability impact of going digital and summed it up simply: they’re saving a mountain of trees every year by eliminating paper-based validation. That’s the kind of change this platform enables, accelerating speed-to-market while reducing waste, manual effort, and risk. Now, the organization is entering its next chapter: embedding AI into the platform, with case studies underway to show how AI can strengthen usability, predict risk earlier, optimize workflows, and elevate decision-making in regulated environments, pushing the future of validation even further. About the Opportunity: This is a newly created, high-impact role for a commercially driven channel leader to build and scale my clients’ strategic partner ecosystem across the U.S. You’ll work closely with senior commercial leadership to activate partners, drive partner-led pipeline, and support strategic co-sell opportunities through to close. Shortlisted candidates will receive the full job profile to review before our first conversation.
