Do you get more energy from building something than from maintaining it? Can you sit across the table from a global pharma executive one day and roll your sleeves up with a project team the next? Ready to own a strategically relationship in our business, and write the playbook as you go, rather than inherit someone else's?
At Cerba Research, we are committed to finding the best talent to join our team. We have partnered with Vector Talent to manage the recruitment process for this role. If you're interested in applying, please direct all applications and questions to Vector Talent.
Cerba Research is looking for a Strategic Alliance Lead to take ownership of our most strategic partnerships, preferred-provider relationships, and sole-source alliances across Central and Specialty Laboratory Services. This is a build role: you'll be the executive and operational bridge between Cerba Research and our most important partners; designing the governance, framework, and cross-functional alignment that doesn't fully exist yet, while elevating the team around you into a more strategic way of working.
With over 40 years of clinical research expertise, Cerba Research has built a unique offering of services, which includes clinical trial management, specialty lab & biomarkers services and medical devices & diagnostics offerings.
Cerba Research supports clients from research and development all the way through clinical studies and commercialization of therapies. We combine the deep therapeutic understanding and agility of a specialist with the capacity, breadth and global reach of a central lab.
Our extensive experience in central & specialty laboratory services is key to our success, allowing us to provide clients with early scientific insights that optimize protocol development.
We provide key laboratory services to biopharma, government and not-for-profit organizations, supporting clinical trials. Our global accredited laboratory network and connected logistical infrastructure covers the US, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Australia and Africa.
Our aim is to transform clinical research to deliver the promise of precision and predictive medicine to help people live healthier lives. It's our passion, expertise, and commitment to quality that drive Cerba Research. We want to change the shape of clinical development, and help patients around the world get access to new treatments faster.
Why Join Us?
As Strategic Alliance Lead, you will contribute to:
Significant in the early phase of this role, as you build relationships and governance structures in person across our labs and our partners' sites. This typically settles to around 30% once a quarterly governance cadence is established.
You've owned a strategic alliance relationship in CRO or central/specialty lab services from the point it was awarded. You're as comfortable in the detail with a project team as you are across the table from a senior procurement or clinical leader. You'd rather build the framework than be handed one.
At Cerba HealthCare, we believe that the diversity of people, backgrounds, and perspectives is an essential asset in fulfilling our mission: to improve the health of everyone, everywhere.
We are committed to providing an inclusive work environment that guarantees equal opportunities for everyone, regardless of age, background, sexual orientation, disability, or any other personal characteristic. All talented individuals are encouraged to apply.
At Cerba Research we provide world-class clinical research to help life science companies successfully develop the predictive and precision medicines of the future and help people live healthier lives.

We are committed to helping you deliver the next generation of human-centric healthcare, by transforming research, and advancing health together.
Uniquely, we combine the experience of specialty laboratories with the global reach of a central lab. We have a worldwide network of 1000 labs, hold data from over 85 million patients across five continents, and have the ability to sequence 1000-plus whole human genomes per week.
