The Life Sciences Associate Role

Life Sciences is one of our largest practice areas. Across our offices in London, Munich, Paris, and Wroclaw our European Life Sciences practice is growing fast, making this an exciting place to start your career with focus on the Life Sciences industry. Our team members are dedicated to Life Science projects, with a significant proportion having a scientific focus. If you have a Bachelor or Master’s degree with a scientific focus, you can become a vital part of our team in the role of a Life Sciences Associate (LSA).

This entry level role:

• allows you to dedicate yourself to an industry with which you are already familiar and for which you have a passion
• builds on the scientific, medical and technical expertise that you bring to projects from day one
• is a platform for you to continue building on your technical skills while learning new commercial capabilities
• provides you with an opportunity to grow and develop into an expert in the field of Life Sciences

LSAs are crucial to the success of L.E.K. Life Sciences project teams. They are responsible for and contribute to projects in many ways

• case-solving: build on medical and scientific findings of the team to contribute to the overall case-solving process and to answer the client’s key questions
• research: conduct critical primary and secondary research to influence client recommendations, e.g. interview scientific experts, key opinion leaders and industry experts, review medical literature
• analysis: conduct quantitative analysis, undertake database manipulation, start building sophisticated financial models and interpret complex data
• communication: translate scientific and medical data and concepts to advise business strategy

As they gain more experience, LSAs are expected to assume a more active managerial role in overseeing the progress of a project and the work of new Associates.

Developing your Skills

Working as an Associate at L.E.K. provides you with the opportunity to gain a comprehensive foundation in problem solving and decision making. From strategy to finance, marketing to operations, Associates are involved in all aspects of strategic and financial analysis and problem solving across a diverse set of Life Science industry sub-sectors. Our people are exposed to a wide range of business challenges and problem types and learn about new topics (e.g., therapeutic areas, modalities, etc.), which means their learning curve is steeper and the experience broader compared to the consultancy peer group. There is no better or faster way to develop analytical and business leadership skills with focus on Life Sciences.

Training and Development

We operate a very comprehensive training programme: new joiners will have an initial two-week orientation, followed by continuous training sessions in accordance with their seniority and individual development priorities. L.E.K.’s training covers the full range of technical, analytical, strategy, communication, project management & relationship building skills. L.E.K. is committed to the training and development of all employees.

What we are looking for

L.E.K. seeks highly motivated, intellectually curious, and entrepreneurial candidates with backgrounds in biosciences, medicine, biotechnologies and experience or strong interest into economics and business strategy related t
