You’ll play a pivotal role in scaling our EU MSAT offering, collaborating with established leaders including **Sarah Pawar**, while benefiting from clear, fast-track progression opportunities and earning **up to 50% commission**.
**What you’ll be doing:**
- **Own and grow the EU MSAT market** — develop new client relationships and expand existing partnerships across Europe.
- **Drive new business opportunities** — both independently and in collaboration with the wider BioTalent team.
- **Contribute to our strategic growth** in Europe as we continue to expand our international footprint.
- **Option to build and mentor a team** around you as your desk grows, if leadership is part of your career plan.
**What we're looking for:**

- Demonstrated billing success with a strong network of EU-based clients.
- Strong business development skills and experience expanding client accounts.
- Leadership capability or potential — whether you’ve led formally, mentored others, or want to develop this in the future.
- Excellent communication, organisation, and customer service skills.
**Why Join BioTalent?**
- **Thought leadership approach** to recruitment — market immersion, proactive industry training, and budget to attend both local and international life science conferences.
- **Serious progression opportunities** — whether your ambition is to build and manage a team or become a market-leading independent biller.
- **International mobility** — with offices across the US, London HQ, and ongoing European expansion.
- **Uncapped, no-threshold commission** up to 50% of your billings.
- **Tailored performance targets** based on your market and ambition — with flexibility and autonomy in how you deliver.
- **Community-driven values** — through initiatives like **Race in STEM**, **Women in Engineering**, and **BioTalent Social**.
- **Total talent solutions** training — expand your expertise beyond contingent hiring to statement of work, RPO, retained search, and more.
**This is your opportunity to build something exceptional within a high-growth, values-led, international business.** If you’re ambitious, entrepreneurial, and passionate about life sciences — let’s talk.
