Business Development Manager – Clinical Research

Boeson Research – Full-Time | Missoula,MT; Provo, UT; or Salt Lake City, UT (Hybrid Eligible)

At Boeson Research, we’re not just conducting clinical trials — we’re building strategic partnerships that drive the growth of groundbreaking therapies. We’re seeking a Business Development Manager (BDM) to join our dynamic team and actively solicit opportunities across our sites.

This role requires a proactive, strategic thinker who thrives in a competitive, fast-paced environment. If you are a driven professional with a passion for solving client needs, nurturing relationships, and securing high-value study opportunities, we want to hear from you.

At Boeson, we recognize that success in highly regulated, competitive industries translates across sectors. Whether your background is in clinical research, healthcare, or it's selling general contracting (GC) services, engineering, architecture, or other high-value projects, we value experience in environments where compliance, deadlines, and meticulous attention to detail are paramount. If you have a proven track record of driving business growth in these fields, you will bring a unique perspective to our clinical research team, where the stakes and competition are equally high.

The Business Development Manager will work across three key functions — finding, keeping, and doing — ensuring that we grow our pipeline, maintain strong relationships, and deliver on study commitments. Importantly, at study award, the responsibility will transition to our Executive Director for contract and budget management, allowing you to focus on nurturing and maintaining long-term relationships.

• Proactively seek new business by identifying and soliciting opportunities through networking, marketing, and strategic outreach.
• Build and maintain relationships with sponsors, CROs, and study networks to ensure a constant flow of opportunities.
• Develop strategic narratives and compelling proposals that position Boeson as a top-tier choice for study awards.
• Travel as needed to attend industry conferences, network, and build relationships, ensuring Boeson remains connected to key players and study opportunities in the clinical research space.

• Nurture relationships with existing partners, ensuring that Boeson stays at the forefront of study opportunities.
• Maintain site-specific readiness by managing site operations, PI expertise, and therapeutic area coverage to ensure we can meet sponsor demands.
• Ensure long-term satisfaction by providing continuous value through consultation, guidance, and high-level service to both sponsors and study partners.
• Nurture study awards after securing the study, maintaining regular communication with sponsors and ensuring Boeson’s ability to perform once the study is awarded.

• Execute on awarded studies — manage feasibility responses, pre-selection visits, and study negotiations, ensuring smooth transitions from initial engagement to execution.
• Contract and budget handoff: Once a study is awarded, responsibility for contract negotiations and budget management will transfer to the Executive Director. The BD Manager will continue to nurture the relationship, ensuring smooth operations.
• Collaborate with site leadership to ensure all awarded studies are fully resourced and operationally prepared to meet deadlines and performance targets.
  

• Proactively increasing awarded studies by effectively managing the full BD cycle — from finding new opportunities to ensuring successful study execution.
• Building and nurturing key relationships with sponsors, CROs, and study networks, ensuring Boeson is positioned as the preferred site for study awards.
• Maintaining site readiness with strategic planning, ensuring that each Boeson site has the operational capacity, PI expertise, and therapeutic area coverage to succeed.
• Contributing to Boeson’s overall revenue growth through a balance of strategic marketing, operational excellence, and high-value study acquisitions.
  

• 3 years of experience in business development, project solicitation, operations, or feasibility in highly regulated, competitive environments (e.g., clinical research, built environment [engineering, contracting, architecture], or related fields), where compliance and regulations are key to success.
• Exceptional communication skills — the ability to write compelling feasibility narratives, present proposals, and engage clients and partners with confidence.
• A proactive, strategic mindset — you’ll balance long-term growth efforts with day-to-day execution, focusing on high-impact activities while ensuring immediate needs are met.
• Client-first mentality — you understand how to solve client needs and position the company as the clear choice for study awards.
• We’ll train you on Boeson’s internal tools to ensure you’re equipped with everything you need to succeed.
  

• Competitive Salary: $85,000 - $115,000 per year.
• Bonus Potential: 20-30% of base salary, based on performance metrics like awarded studies, revenue growth, and client relationship success.
• Total Compensation Potential: $100,000 - $150,000 per year, including base salary and bonus.
• Impactful Work: You’ll directly influence Boeson’s growth by securing study opportunities, converting them into awards, and driving revenue across our sites.
• Work-Life Flexibility: Hybrid work options, flexible hours, and a supportive environment that prioritizes both high performance and employee well-being.
• Growth Opportunities: As we continue to scale, you’ll play a key role in shaping Boeson’s future with professional development and career advancement opportunities.
• Collaborative Culture: At Boeson, we work with intention, ensuring each member contributes to our growth with ownership and accountability. We pride ourselves on being proactive and intentional in addressing challenges and improving processes.
• Competitive Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, and opportunities for bonuses and career development.
• Travel: A percentage of travel is expected for attending conferences and site visits to build relationships, network, and secure study opportunities across multiple locations.
  

At Boeson Research, we are committed to building a high-performance, intentional team. If you’re excited about driving growth, winning study awards, and making a direct impact in clinical research, we’d love to hear from you.
