Full Job Description
The Role

As a Consultant in R&D, you will help pharma bring treatments to patients faster by transforming how they work with Technology, Data, and AI. You will focus on reshaping operating models, driving organizational change, and measuring tangible business value. R&D is a broad area that includes several distinct practices: Clinical Operations, Clinical Data Management, Regulatory, and Pharmacovigilance. You will focus in one of these practices based on your background, interests, and needs of the business. You will build credibility, depth, and relationships in that practice, but staffing will remain fungible across R&D and movement between practices is always permitted.

What You'll Do

    • Lead project workstreams from end-to-end, ensuring the high-quality design and delivery of customer solutions
    • Solve complex problems for Life Sciences leaders, leveraging Veeva's unique data and software insights
    • Mentor and manage Associate Consultants, overseeing their work and professional development within your workstream
    • Drive practice growth by contributing to business development and internal IP creation


Requirements

    • Experience: 3+ years in Life Sciences Consulting (Business or Management Consulting preferred)
    • Domain Knowledge: Experience in biopharma ClinOps, ClinData, Regulatory, Safety, or general R&D strategy
    • Analytical Rigor: A strong mindset for both quantitative and qualitative reasoning
    • Communication: Ability to articulate complex ideas clearly to senior stakeholders
    • Education: Bachelor's degree or higher
    • Not a perfect match yet? If you have 3-5 years of life sciences experience, a recent advanced degree, or a military background, Master Class is your pathway to a consulting career. [ Explore Master Class ]

Work Where It's Best for You

Work Anywhere means you can work in an office or at home on any given day. It's about getting the work done in the way and place that works best for each person. This applies across all locations and departments.

Work Anywhere does not mean work at any time. We have predictable core hours where employees are generally available for meetings and collaboration. Employees are focused and available during core hours.

We invest in our offices to make them places where our employees like to go. If you work in the office three or more days a week, you will have a dedicated office workspace. Our offices function as hubs to draw people in, create social bonds, and where random connections and mixing of ideas happen. We're investing more in offices, culture, and offsite meetings, not less.

Product teams are organized in regional product hubs for optimal collaboration and live within a time zone of their hub. Our current product hubs are located in Pleasanton, Columbus, Boston, Kansas City, New York City, Raleigh, and Toronto. We create opportunities for teams to get together in person regularly.

Customer-facing roles, such as Sales and Professional Services, live near and/or travel to their customers.

When an employee moves within a country it does not cause a change in salary. Where you live impacts you and your family. Not knowing if your compensation will change if you move can cause stress and uncertainty for everyone. We wanted to eliminate that.

Work at Veeva. Work where it's best for you.
