Build scalable templates and tools that enhance service delivery across geographies.
Monitor companies in the biotech, medtech, and pharmaceutical sectors—from early-stage startups to public firms—tracking funding milestones, clinical pipelines, partnerships, and expansions.
Identify real estate decision inflection points (e.g., IPOs, new clinical phases, M&A activity) and align those with broker outreach and opportunity pipelines.
Maintain and regularly update a curated list of strategic targets to support CRM integration and proactive client engagement.
Translate complex industry developments into relevant real estate implications for internal and external audiences.
CRM Strategy, Pipeline Tracking & Business Enablement
Leverage Savills Salesforce environment to track target companies, contacts, and opportunities aligned with life sciences growth triggers.
Maintain detailed and dynamic CRM records to reflect company stage, activity history, strategic touchpoints, and geographic expansion status.
Collaborate with brokers and marketing to execute targeted outreach campaigns based on funding events, clinical milestones, and relocation trends.
Develop dashboards and reports that visualize pipeline health, deal progress, and prospect engagement across key geographies.
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree (MBA, MS, PhD) or relevant certifications preferred.
2–6 years of experience in life sciences, research, management consulting, or corporate strategy.
Deep familiarity with biotech, pharma, and/or medtech industries including R&D pipelines, funding dynamics, and commercialization paths.
Exceptional analytical skills with the ability to distill complex data into strategic insights.
