This consultant must be based in Connecticut.

CHIEF BUSINESS OFFICER

We are looking to onboard a previous Chief Business Officer, Vice President Business Development, or Chief Commercial Officer with deep experience in a life science tools company selling R&D instrumentation, with a focus on biological reagents. Critical is deep understanding of the commercial hurdles in the proteomics/life science tools industry. Proven experience in either new product development or new channel development is a must. This role requires technical expertise or deep experience in instrumentation and biological material used for research and discovery and a strategic mindset to drive growth and value creation.
