The opportunity
Our consulting teams rely heavily on primary research, including interviews with scientists, clinicians, industry executives, commercial leaders, and other subject-matter experts. They also leverage our proprietary data sets, market reports, and expert network (run by Dexter, our SaaS subsidiary).
Thus, we are seeking a Research Specialist to help us consistently identify and engage the right experts for our primary research conversations. The Research Specialist will own much of the process for recruiting subject-matter experts for DeciBio’s consulting engagements and proprietary research. Working across multiple projects at once, you will translate research needs into clear expert profiles, identify relevant candidates, conduct persistent and professional outreach, assess candidates’ fit, and coordinate one-hour interviews between experts and our consulting teams:
This unique role provides an opportunity to engage with and support stakeholders across DeciBio’s departments.
The role combines research, recruiting, relationship-building, project coordination, and elements of sales. It is not a consulting analyst position, although it provides significant exposure to life-sciences markets, strategic questions, and senior industry professionals.
Over time, the role may expand into broader Knowledge Center responsibilities, including: training and/or managing future research specialists, more complex important sourcing engagements, expert-network development initiatives, supporting DeciBio’s internal and proprietary Intelligence Portal, AI-enabled research, special research projects, business-development support, knowledge management, and eventually the management of additional research-support resources. The right employee could also grow to help identify and coordinate qualified business development conversations.
Requirements
Compensation
In addition to base salary, DeciBio offers performance-based incentives, year-end company-wide profit sharing, and comprehensive employee benefits.
The incentive component may reflect successful completion of qualified expert interviews, sourcing quality, responsiveness, accuracy, and broader team contribution. Specific compensation will depend on location and experience.
