Commercial Associate driving BD pipeline and managing investor relations at Molecule. Collaborating with multiple stakeholders and ensuring relationships don’t stall during fast-paced deal activity.
Responsibilities
Own follow-through on BD pipeline - track active deal workstreams across enterprise, academic, and biotech partnerships, ensure nothing stalls, and surface the right opportunities to leadership at the right time
Manage and build investor relations - maintain relationships with 70+ existing investors through regular updates, slide decks, and follow-ups, and drive new investor relationships forward alongside the CEO and Head of Commercial
Triage enterprise, pharma, and investor correspondence with sound commercial judgement
Coordinate and prepare for high-stakes calls and meetings across time zones, ensuring the Team walks into every conversation fully briefed
Draft and refine investor communications, partnership proposals, and internal updates on behalf of the Commercial Team
Build and maintain a commercial system - create structure around how BD opportunities are categorised, tracked, and reported internally (think: our own lean CRM)
Coordinate cross-functional deal activity - many of Molecule’s BD engagements span organisations and teams; you’ll be the connective tissue that keeps everyone aligned
Analyse the science behind partnerships - evaluate incoming opportunities with enough scientific literacy to triage what’s worth pursuing and brief leadership accordingly
Jump on calls with partners and investors as a credible representative of Molecule when needed
Requirements
You’re commercially hungry. Whether you came from tech sales at a startup, BD at a health-tech company, or you taught yourself commercial skills alongside your academic work - you understand pipeline, follow-up, and what it takes to close
You’re not typically corporate. We’re not looking for someone who climbed the ladder at a large pharma company. We want someone scrappy - think a biotech startup, or someone who hustled their way through a top programme and is now looking for real ownership
You’re organised and relentless about follow-through. The biggest gap this role fills is making sure that the volume of relationships and deals Molecule generates don’t fall through the cracks
You’re a strong communicator - equally comfortable drafting a board-level investor memo and hopping on a call with a lab partner or KOL
You thrive in complexity and are energised by managing multiple priorities across deals, relationships, and internal coordination simultaneously
You have global flexibility - ideally willing to spend the first several months in Berlin for onboarding and relationship-building with the core team
Nice to Have
You have a have a scientific background - ideally a Master’s or PhD in life sciences, biotech, chemistry, or a related field - and you can engage credibly with researchers and pharma partners on the substance of what they do
Familiarity with biotech IP licensing, research collaboration agreements, or venture deal structures
Experience working across US and European markets and navigating international stakeholder relationships
Interest in or exposure to decentralised science, Web3, or token-based funding models
Experience building or managing a CRM or deal-tracking system from scratch
Benefits
Exposure to enterprise pharma, institutional investors, and cutting-edge research partnerships globally
A team that values substance over titles, speed over process, and people who’ve built their way up
Competitive compensation including token-based upside
