You'd work within the Business Development group on concrete projects: building tools to streamline how the company monitors and tracks its contractual obligations across alliances, developing systems for strategic analysis of alliance workflows, and helping ensure compliance across Beam's portfolio of foundational licenses and collaborations. The role blends process improvement with exposure to high-level partnership decisions.
