Applicants need a strong understanding of how clinical trials are funded, sold, bought, and delivered, alongside a record of building revenue, partnerships, a business line, or a company in the sector. Candidates must demonstrate senior commercial credibility, the judgement to operate in a regulated environment while respecting Good Clinical Practice, patient consent, privacy, and data integrity, and the independence to create structure without an established playbook. A passion for artificial intelligence, shown through hands-on building, prototyping, or side projects, is also required.
