Commercial Associate

Molecule and BIO.xyz are building the foundation of Decentralized Science (DeSci) - where biotech meets web3 to make scientific research community-owned, transparent, and faster to market.

Molecule provides the infrastructure to turn intellectual property (IP) into programmable, on-chain assets through our IP-NFT framework and evolving protocol stack. This enables researchers, patients, and communities to fund and govern biotech projects in new, open ways.

BIO.xyzis the coordination and economic layer of DeSci, powering BioDAOs through funding, governance, and ecosystem alignment.

Together, we are creating a new model for scientific discovery - one where breakthroughs are owned and advanced by the communities that believe in them.

The Role

We're looking for a sharp, commercially-minded operator to work directly alongside Molecule's CEO and Commercial Team. This role sits at the centre of everything - driving BD pipeline, managing investor relationships, handling high-priority communications with enterprise pharma partners, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks in a fast-moving organisation.

Molecule's Commercial Team runs a high volume of concurrent partnerships across pharma, biotech, academic institutions, and investors. Deals get introduced, calls happen, and then things need someone relentless to keep them moving. You'll work closely with the CEO and our Head of Commercial to manage the pipeline, maintain investor relations across 70+ existing investors, and build the systems that make all of this scalable.

This is a role for someone who can context-switch between a pharma licensing conversation and an investor update without missing a beat - and who understands why what Molecule is building matters for the future of drug development.

What You'll Do
* Own follow-through on BD pipeline - track active deal workstreams across enterprise, academic, and biotech partnerships, ensure nothing stalls, and surface the right opportunities to leadership at the right time
