Business Development Advisor

Eastern AHSN (Academic Health Science Network) has an exciting opportunity for a business development advisor to join our corporate team.

Salary: £31,110 – £47,736

Hours of work: Full-time

Deadline: 23:59pm on Sunday 11 June

This is a chance to join a fast growing, dynamic company, whose purpose is to turn great ideas into positive health impact. Citizens, academia, health services and industry achieve more working together than in isolation. As part of a national network, we make this happen by bringing together all partners in the health sector, to develop and deliver innovative care.  We are an independent company funded mostly through public money from the NHS, but we work with a wide range of innovative organisations in the public and private sectors.

We are looking for colleagues who share not only our values but also our enthusiasm and commitment to making a difference for our communities. We are united by being dynamic, curious, creative and adaptable. We appreciate the value of evidence and enjoy trying new and different approaches to solving problems and are comfortable with ambiguity, often-changing plans and unanticipated challenges.

The business development advisor is a new role to support our growing business development portfolio. It will work collaboratively across the organisation to scope and develop new business opportunities as well as grow our networks, build relationships with clients and deliver aspects of programmes. Working closely with our director of business development, the advisor will also continue to build our organisational bid collateral and business development strategy as we continue to grow the portfolio.
