Principal, Life Sciences Strategy Consulting

BGB Group Principal I/II Our Agency BGB is a healthcare communications agency that offers a wide range of services, including traditional pharmaceutical advertising, promotional medical education, payer marketing, and consulting services. Known for excellence and professionalism, we're hired as strategic and creative partners by our biopharmaceutical clients to drive category/brand awareness and growth. Who We Are At BGB Group, we don't just analyze the healthcare landscape-we shape it. Our Innovation x Intelligence (IxI) division is a fast-moving, insight-fueled team that blends the rigor of consulting with the creativity of brand strategy. Backed by the combined firepower of BGB Group and Kx Advisors, we help biopharma clients unlock smarter, braver strategies that improve lives. We go deep-leveraging primary research, data analysis, and real-world experience to crack complex commercial challenges across portfolio strategy, market assessment, go-to-market planning, and product launch. Who This Role is For This role is for the strategic thinkers. The ones who thrive on complexity and clarity. You're plugged into the world - curious about how brands behave, why people make the choices they do, and how culture influences commerce. You were that kid in class - the one with another question, the one who got excited to be wrong because it meant learning something new. You love navigating ambiguity and shaping bold, actionable paths forward. You're energized by data-but you know insight is more than numbers. You think commercially, act creatively, and lead collaboratively. ❤️ You want your work to matter-to help healthcare brands live up to their potential and make life better for people living with disease. The Role As a Principal, you'll lead engagements that help the world's top biopharma companies make critical commercial decisions. You'll guide teams, shape strategy, and deliver work that drives real impact-from market opportunity assessments to competitive positioning and product commercialization. You'll be a trusted partner to clients and a key contributor to our practice's growth-scoping new opportunities, building relationships, and helping shape the future of our consulting offering.
