Director of Business Development (Advanced Therapies)
Director, Business Development – Advanced Therapies CDMO (Europe)
Europe (Remote) | Full-Time | Cell & Gene Therapy
Our client is at the forefront of one of the most transformative areas in biotechnology — Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT). Their mission is to enable the next generation of life‑saving genetic medicines through the development and manufacture of high‑quality DNA materials that underpin modern advanced therapies. Leveraging a proprietary enzymatic, cell‑free production platform, they deliver DNA faster, safer, and more efficiently than traditional plasmid‑based methods — helping innovators in the field accelerate from concept to clinic.
As a trusted CDMO partner to biopharma and biotech companies globally, they empower breakthroughs in cell and gene therapies, mRNA vaccines, gene editing, and other advanced therapeutic platforms. Joining this organisation means being part of a team where cutting‑edge science translates directly into real‑world patient impact.
This is a high‑impact role suited to someone who thrives in fast‑moving environments, values autonomy, and knows how to close technical sales in the cell and gene therapy space. You’ll be joining a science‑driven team with ambitious plans and best‑in‑class manufacturing platforms across plasmid DNA, mRNA, and viral vectors.
What You’ll Do:
* Build and own relationships with European biotech and biopharma clients developing cell/gene therapies.
* Lead deal generation and contract negotiations across early- and late‑stage programs.
* Translate complex technical solutions into clear value for customers.
* Work closely with technical, project, and leadership teams to shape proposals and partnerships.
What You Bring:
* 7+ years’ experience in business development or commercial roles within a CDMO.
* Strong exposure to cell and gene therapy modalities – e.g., plasmid DNA, mRNA, AAV/LV vectors, or cell therapy manufacturing.
* Ability to work independently across diverse markets and client types.
* Track record of closing deals and building long‑term client partnerships.
Why This Role?
* Join a CDMO dedicated to advanced therapies with no legacy distractions.
* Work remotely with flexible hours and direct access to decision‑makers.
* Be part of a team that moves fast, values technical depth, and puts science first.
