Identify, qualify, and secure new business opportunities, managing the full business development cycle from prospecting to deal closure.
Degree in a technical-scientific discipline (Biotechnology, Biology, Engineering, or equivalent) or in economics/management with a strong interest in the biotech sector.
At least three years of experience in international business development within the Biotech, Pharmaceutical, or other highly regulated sectors involving complex validation and go-to-market processes.
Fluency in Flemish and English (C1 level).
Willingness to travel for short business trips within Europe.
MBA or advanced training in economics or business.
Knowledge of Italian.
Familiarity with biotechnological processes, biomanufacturing, and biomedical applications.

Professional development programs and continuous training.
Part-time contract (minimum 50%) or full-time, depending on candidate availability.
Performance-related bonuses for individual and team commercial achievements.
