- Enable Commercial Success: Partner with the commercial team to review promotional materials, advertising, and other go-to-market initiatives.
- Protect and Empower: Spot legal risks early, propose smart solutions, and balance business agility with compliance.
- Collaborate Across Teams: Work side-by-side with colleagues in R&D, Regulatory Affairs, Quality, HR, Finance, and Commercial to deliver clear, actionable guidance.

- 10+ years of legal experience in biotech, pharma, or life sciences (in-house or at a top firm advising clients in these sectors).
- Deep knowledge of the regulations shaping the biotechnology industry.
- Proven success drafting and negotiating complex agreements.
- Familiarity with global privacy frameworks (e.g., GDPR).
- A reputation for providing clear, business-oriented legal counsel in fast-moving environments.
- Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills—you can talk science with scientists, strategy with executives, and compliance with employees.
