Business Development Manager โ Life Sciences | Remote
Preferred locations: San Diego, CAย
A well-established, profitable biospecimen company with more than 20 years in the life sciences space is expanding its commercial team.ย This is not a traditional biobank sales role. The company specializes in highly customized, prospective sample collections built around specific patient profiles, making this a consultative, science-driven sale that requires both commercial drive and credibility with research-facing customers.
They are seeking a self-directed Business Development Manager to own a territory end to end โ from prospecting and relationship development through discovery, feasibility discussions, pricing, quoting, and close. This is a high-autonomy role for someone who knows how to build pipeline, open doors, navigate complex customer conversations, and drive business without a heavy support structure behind them.
If you are a true hunter with experience selling into biotech, pharma, diagnostics, or research-oriented life sciences customers, and can engage credibly with scientific stakeholders, this could be a strong fit. Apply now!ย
