Commercial Engagement Manager in Weehawken

Manager, Commercial Engagement - Life Sciences

Storm3's client is an early-stage Health Tech company building AI-powered software for pharmaceutical commercial teams. Their platform helps life sciences organizations manage content creation, review, and deployment more efficiently, reducing the bottlenecks that slow down commercial execution. Over the last year they've expanded rapidly across the pharmaceutical market and now support dozens of brands across large biopharma organizations and emerging biotech companies.

The business is well-funded, growing quickly, and still small enough that individual contributions materially shape the company's direction.

This isn't a traditional customer success role, account management role, or consulting role, although there are elements of all three. You'll act as the primary commercial partner to pharmaceutical and biotech clients, helping them navigate complex promotional strategies while also ensuring execution happens. The person in this seat is expected to influence senior stakeholders, challenge assumptions when necessary, and translate ambiguous business problems into clear recommendations.

What makes the opportunity interesting is the level of ownership. There is no long chain of escalation and no hand-off between strategy and delivery. You'll be expected to develop a point of view, align stakeholders around it, and then make sure the work gets done. The company is particularly interested in candidates who have come from rigorous consulting or strategy environments and enjoy operating where there isn't always a predefined playbook.

Pharma experience is helpful, but not essential. Their view is that commercial judgment, analytical thinking, and stakeholder management are harder to teach than industry knowledge. The environment is fast-paced and demanding. It suits people who enjoy being close to decision-making, are comfortable managing competing priorities, and want exposure across client engagement, product strategy, operations, and business development rather than staying within a narrowly defined function.
