The Opportunity

This is not just another sales role.

You’ll be joining a fast-growing UK business at the forefront of transforming how life-saving drugs are developed. With a proven track record of securing multi-million-pound transatlantic deals with leading global pharmaceutical companies, the business is scaling rapidly—and you could be a key part of that journey.

If you’re looking to sell a genuinely innovative solution, work with an exceptional leadership team, and accelerate your career in a high-growth environment, this is your chance.

About the Company & Solution

This organisation is redefining how Electronic Health Record (EHR) data is used in clinical research.

Their cutting-edge SaaS platform analyses and interprets real-world healthcare data, turning it into powerful insights that drive smarter, faster drug development.

Clients—including major global pharmaceutical companies—use this platform to:

* Access real-time, searchable patient data

* Optimise clinical trial design and execution

* Reduce development timelines and costs

* Bring life-saving treatments to market faster

The impact? Tangible improvements in global health outcomes, powered by data.

The Role

As a Business Development Manager, you will play a pivotal role in driving new business growth across the pharmaceutical and CRO landscape.

This is a strategic, consultative sales position where you’ll engage senior stakeholders and build demand for a complex, high-value solution.

You’ll thrive here if you enjoy creating opportunities from scratch, navigating long sales cycles, and influencing decision-makers in a highly specialised market.

Key Responsibilities

* Build, manage, and convert a high-quality pipeline of new business opportunities

* Identify and engage key stakeholders across pharmaceutical companies and CROs

* Develop relationships with teams in clinical development, medical affairs, and real-world evidence

* Lead consultative sales processes from initial engagement through to close

* Articulate the value of a complex, data-driven SaaS solution

* Maintain accurate pipeline visibility and forecasting via CRM

About You

We’re looking for a driven, commercially minded sales professional who is ready to step up and make an impact.

You will have:

* 1–3 years’ experience in a relevant sales or business development role

* Exposure to the life sciences, pharmaceutical, or CRO market

* A track record of generating new business and hitting targets

* Experience selling solutions (ideally SaaS or data-driven offerings)

* The ability to engage multiple stakeholders and manage complex sales cycles

* A proactive, self-starting mindset with the hunger to succeed

Most importantly, you’re ambitious, resilient, and excited by the opportunity to sell something that genuinely makes a difference.

Why Join?

* Sell a truly innovative, market-leading solution

* Be part of a company closing multi-million-pound global deals

* Work directly with an experienced and supportive leadership team

* Enjoy significant earning potential with uncapped commission

* Accelerate your career in a high-growth, high-impact sector

* Contribute to advancements in life-saving drug development
