About The Role:

As a Norstella RWD Engagement manager, you will lead the day to day execution of a client project to help clients achieve their goals. You’ll work directly with clients and take ownership of the overall project and its end products while guiding and coordinating individual team members.

You will have the opportunity to build on your proven leadership skills and leverage your interest in inspiring others, building strong relationships, and creating a true followership.

2. Partner with internal Norstella resources to support implementation opportunities across the Norstella family of companies.
3. Exhibit a client-first mentality with responsiveness, updates on market events, and facilitate discussions at end of projects to support opportunity for follow-on work discussions.
4. Adhere to Norstella standards regarding engagement management, project delivery, and team collaborations.
5. Maintain and update client and project documentation.
6. All other duties, as assigned.

5. Comprehensive understanding of life science and pharmaceutical engagement strategies and tactics, acting as a thought partner to clients
6. Significant experience with data analytics and quantitative models to support strategic client engagements
7. Strong team player, ability to work with cross-functional staff, but able to work autonomously with little direction.
