Job Title: Consultant / Senior Associate
Location: Central London (EC1N 8UB)
Requirement: Specialist Competitive Intelligence (CI) Experience
Contract Period: Permanent
Work Model: Hybrid
Company Overview:
Our client is a privately owned, founder led specialist consultancy operating at the intersection of competitive intelligence and commercial strategy. They deliver deep, strategic CI to help global Life Sciences organisations navigate complex enterprise and corporate strategy. This is an environment where quality and ownership are paramount.
The Opportunity:
* Flexible Hybrid Model: Enjoy the balance of a hybrid working arrangement, with increased in-person collaboration during the initial probation period to ensure a smooth integration.
* Independent Project Leadership: This is a genuine project management position where you will run monitoring programs relatively independently.
* Direct Client Ownership: You will manage the client relationship and operate with limited oversight beyond engagement manager support.
* Strategic Contribution: Rather than just delivery support, you will be involved in broader operational discussions and business development.
* High-Impact Visibility: Because the firm is privately owned, decision-making is close to leadership, ensuring your contributions are recognised.
What Do You Need:
* Direct CI Experience: Solid expertise within the competitive intelligence.
* Project Leadership: Experience running monitoring programs and managing end-to-end projects rather than just internal workstreams.
* Client Exposure: The ability to manage clients and engagements with limited oversight.
* Therapeutic Knowledge: While open to adjacent areas like immunology or rheumatology, experience in Oncology is a major priority.
* Growth Mindset: An appetite for both high-quality delivery and contributing to business development.
What You Will Get:
* A very clear promotion structure and consistent review cadence.
* Access to a year-long external leadership program from the Consultant level onward.
* Involvement in operational discussions and dedicated time for business development activity.
* A work environment where decision-making is close to leadership and your contributions are highly visible.
