Global Business Development Lead – Cell & Gene
Description
Some of the most exciting advances in the pharmaceutical industry are happening in the Cell and Gene Therapy space. Patients with a terminal prognosis are now being offered curative treatments, and we are starting to see interventions for chronic disease being developed too.
We work closely with our clients to unleash the promise of cell therapy by inventing technologies that address time, cost, and scale challenges in advanced therapies manufacturing.
Join TTP’s Cell & Gene team as our Global Business Development Lead and you’ll be sourcing and scoping opportunities that will enable patient access to lifesaving treatment.
The role

Business development within TTP is deeply integrated with our technical teams, forming close links between our capabilities. Working closely with our technical consultants you will use your own technical knowledge and business acumen to develop commercial propositions.
Building new, meaningful and long-term connections and relationships with the right members of the industry will come naturally to you, whilst identifying where near-term pains and longer-term opportunities lie.
At TTP insight gained through business development is a vital catalyst for the creation of new ideas and, as such, you will have an enquiring mind and strongly entrepreneurial outlook. You will also enjoy inspiring and nurturing business development capabilities in others.
