Senior Business Development Manager

RoukenBio is a science-led research partner built on a different vision of CRO, one that is deeply collaborative, personalised and driven by sustainable long-term growth. We exist to accelerate drug discovery for global innovators and we recognise that high-quality data only comes from the brilliant minds we hire. That’s why our culture is the core of everything we do; we foster a collaborative community that treats our people as our most important asset.

Because we are responsive to both complex science and our customers' needs, our day-to-day experience here is dynamic. Most people find that time passes quickly because the work is consistently varied and engaging. We don’t believe in letting talent sit idle; we offer exposure and trust to make an impact from the start, allowing you to build confidence and expertise through hands-on involvement rather than just watching from the sidelines. This is a place for those who are motivated by learning and who find energy in a busy, evolving environment. 

We are honest about our model because we want you to succeed. Our work isn't always predictable; priorities shift as projects evolve, which requires practical resilience and the ability to reorganise and stay constructive as things move. This balance of being challenged while remaining fully supported is where meaningful progression happens. It works best for people who take genuine ownership of their work, enjoy the practical realities of a high-growth business and who are motivated to see their own skills and opportunities scale alongside the company. We value people who see the opportunity in that pace and who care about the integrity of the process as much as the end result.
