Job Zusammenfassung
In dieser Rolle entwickelst du lokale Pharma-Engagements, baust Beziehungen auf und sicherst die technische Umsetzung komplexer Data & AI-Lösungen, um signifikanten Mehrwert zu schaffen und Transformationen in der DACH-Region zu gestalten.
Deine Rolle im Team
- As Managing Director at Unit8, you won't just close deals - you'll be a cornerstone of how we grow and deliver Data & AI transformation for pharma clients across the DACH market.
- As we reorganize into verticals and horizontals, this role sits at the center of our pharma vertical: you own both sides of the equation - originating high-value client relationships and ensuring delivery actually moves the needle.
- This is a senior leadership position for someone as comfortable originating a complex engagement as overseeing its delivery - with pharma as a main focus.
- You shape and close the deal, build relationships and trust with pharma decision-makers, and stay close enough to ensure technical execution delivers real value.
- Leverage your existing pharma network to source, shape, and close high-value engagements in DACH (new logos, not just expansions).
- Translate complex pharma business problems - from R&D data strategy to commercial analytics to regulatory-grade AI - into concrete Data & AI solutions, and hold clients accountable to realizing that value.
- Lead and shape complex, tech-enabled transformations across the pharma value chain - from early problem definition through scaled delivery - ensuring technology choices serve the business outcome, not the other way around.
- Act as the senior point of contact for key pharma clients throughout delivery, keeping technical execution anchored to business value.
- Challenge clients when necessary - on scope, pace, and ambition.
- Work closely with our engineering and data science teams (a horizontal you'll draw on across verticals), providing pharma business context, removing blockers, and coaching them.
Unsere Erwartungen an dich
Qualifikationen
- You've run complex, tech-enabled transformations in pharma - from a top-tier global consultancy or a specialist data & AI firm.
- You've navigated high-stakes, ambiguous engagements through to delivery, with the results to show for it.
- Currently at Principal or Associate Partner / Director level - or equivalent - with the commercial track record and client ownership, looking for the next step.
- You don't need to write code, but you must 'speak Tech' - understanding data architecture and AI well enough to raise our delivery bar and earn the respect of world-class engineers.
- An established network of senior client relationships in DACH pharma.
- Fluent in English. German and/or French (nice to have).
- Comfortable traveling, including e.g. on-site engagements in the US (up to 5 weeks).
Erfahrung
- Significant experience in Data & AI consulting for pharma/life sciences, with a clear and verifiable track record of personally originating and closing major client relationships in the sector.
Unser Angebot
- At Unit8, we don't just 'turn data into value' - we empower the people who make it happen.
- If you are looking for a place where you can say, 'I am independent and I take ownership', your next chapter starts here.
- Trust from Day One: We believe in your expertise, and trust is a core part of our culture.
- Work that Matters: You will do things that matter, and together we will facilitate the work of others.
- Passion-Led Projects: We create an environment where you can pursue your passion alongside great talent.
- If the future makes you excited, you belong here.
- Impact: You will be part of our leadership team and have a direct hand in shaping how Unit8 grows in the DACH market - defining our commercial approach, influencing which industries and clients we focus on, and setting the standard for how we deliver.
- This is not an execution role inside a fixed strategy; you help write it.
- Competitive compensation package.
- Flexibility & Growth: Above-the-norm flexibility on where and when you work, with up to 10% of your time dedicated to learning and pro-bono projects.
- Connection & Fun: Whether it's our cross-office off-sites, online events, or a dedicated quarterly team budget for after-work activities, we make sure we stay connected.
