About this role
GenScript is looking for a Business Development Manager to grow sales of its custom life science services across the San Francisco Peninsula. You'd split your time evenly between office-based account management, quote follow-up, and field work—visiting customers and attending virtual meetings to build relationships and hit territory sales targets. Working alongside Regional Managers and Technical Solution Managers, you'd develop sales strategies, match GenScript's service offerings to customer research needs, and feed market insights back to the broader sales and marketing teams.
The role suits someone with a Master's degree or equivalent in a life science field and at least two years of scientific or life science sales experience. Knowledge of gene synthesis, protein, peptide, bioassays, antibodies, or cell line services is valued, as is familiarity with the CRO/CDMO or broader biotech landscape. Lab experience is a plus. You'll need to operate comfortably in an international business environment and leverage both scientific credibility and corporate contacts to drive profitable growth.
GenScript offers competitive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage; a 401(k) with immediate vesting; paid parental leave after three months; flexible PTO; and commuter benefits. The base salary range is $90,000–$105,000 depending on experience, plus incentive pay. This is an in-office role requiring Bay Area residency.
