The Parkinson’s Virtual Biotech is our patient-focussed drug development arm, through which the charity (with its strategic partners) intends to invest £50m as an evergreen seed venture fund.

We invest in early stage biotech companies to create a pipeline of compelling opportunities for follow-on investment by fully private venture funds or pharma companies.

You will be working in a team that has experience of raising capital for young biotech, managing the science and the business sides of emerging biotech companies.

Your role will be to deepen and broaden our knowledge and provide hands-on help in our day to day work that includes environmental scanning, assessments of scientific and investment opportunities, and preparing pitches for senior management and co-funders.

The ideal candidate will have:

● Experience working in the financial and/or business side of the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.
● Masters degree in business preferably with a focus on technology and research-intensive sectors.
● Experience assessing the economics of investment opportunities portfolios that include drug discovery stage projects (for example, NPV calculations).

This is an exciting time for Parkinson’s UK and we would love you to join us! Please apply by sending us your CV, together with a detailed supporting statement which will fully demonstrate how you meet all the criteria of the role, as stated in the "What you'll bring" section of the job description.
