Technology Innovation Consultant, Biosciences
Permanent/Full Time; Royston, Herts, UK
Competitive remuneration package that includes annual bonus scheme, private healthcare, travel allowance and more!
Are you a PhD scientist looking for a role beyond the lab?
Do you enjoy immersing yourself in technology, but want a career that rewards breadth of interest as opposed to depth?
Do you want to work across medical devices, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics and human health as well as having the opportunity to move into truly diverse areas such as consumer products?
At PA Consulting we thrive on helping our clients get the most out of innovation by performing deep technology analysis, challenging assumptions and providing roadmaps for successful product launches. With the advent of genomics, personalised medicines, lab on a chip technologies and large-scale data analysis the landscape of human healthcare has never been more dynamic. PA help clients navigate this rapidly changing environment by providing independent analysis, guidance and product development services “Bringing Innovation to Life”.
The Technology Innovation Management team (TIM) is actively looking to hire an early-career consultant who is keen to enter this exciting space. The work is highly project-led with the incumbent expected to support senior consultants with analysis of data from a diverse range of sources which is ultimately used to empower our clients to make the right choices. Ultimately you will be developed towards becoming a full 360 consultant by leading projects and liaising directly with external clients/stakeholders to deliver outstanding results.
As a recently qualified Life Sciences PhD scientist you will have strong skills in data collation, analysis, reporting and be hungry to use this skill set out of the classical research and laboratory setting. You will have a strong interest in commercialisation of technology and enjoy presenting and sharing your ideas with others. Your PhD will have given you a deep understanding of a specific technical niche, but your nature is to want to broaden this area of expertise.
You will be used to working to challenging deadlines and be able to manage your time and stakeholder’s expectations; ultimately thriving in a fast-paced environment with plenty of variety.
