Please read the following job description thoroughly to ensure you are the right fit for this role before applying.

The ideal candidate is analytically sharp, intellectually curious, and eager to contribute across both life sciences-specific initiatives and broader commercial real estate research functions. This is a unique opportunity to work at the nexus of science, data, and strategy in one of the industry’s fastest-growing sectors.

Key Responsibilities

Research Operations & Market Data Management

  • Maintain and update proprietary databases tracking inventory, leasing activity, sales comparables, ownership structures, development pipelines, and tenant movements in key markets.
  • Contribute to the production of quarterly market statistics and collaborate with national and regional teams on sector-specific reports.
  • Ensure accuracy and consistency of data across platforms to support client-ready deliverables and leadership decision-making.

Client-Focused Research & Broker Support

  • Respond to requests for market intelligence to support broker teams and strategic pursuits.
  • Partner with brokers and across functions to develop data-driven materials for client meetings, pitch decks, and presentations.
  • Leverage research outputs to support marketing campaigns, graphics, and thought leadership placement tailored to client needs.
  • Build scalable templates and tools that enhance service delivery across geographies.
  • Life Sciences Industry Intelligence

  • Monitor companies in the biotech, medtech, and pharmaceutical sectors—from early-stage startups to public firms—tracking funding milestones, clinical pipelines, partnerships, and expansions.
  • Identify real estate decision inflection points (e.g., IPOs, new clinical phases, M&A activity) and align those with broker outreach and opportunity pipelines.
  • Maintain and regularly update a curated list of strategic targets to support CRM integration and proactive client engagement.
  • Translate complex industry developments into relevant real estate implications for internal and external audiences.
  • CRM Strategy, Pipeline Tracking & Business Enablement

  • Leverage Savills Salesforce environment to track target companies, contacts, and opportunities aligned with life sciences growth triggers.
  • Maintain detailed and dynamic CRM records to reflect company stage, activity history, strategic touchpoints, and geographic expansion status.
  • Collaborate with brokers and marketing to execute targeted outreach campaigns based on funding events, clinical milestones, and relocation trends.
  • Develop dashboards and reports that visualize pipeline health, deal progress, and prospect engagement across key geographies.
  • Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree (MBA, MS, PhD) or relevant certifications preferred.
  • 2–6 years of experience in life sciences, research, management consulting, or corporate strategy.
  • Deep familiarity with biotech, pharma, and / or medtech industries including R&D pipelines, funding dynamics, and commercialization paths.
  • Exceptional analytical skills with the ability to distill complex data into strategic insights.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; experience writing reports or market commentary is a plus.
  • CRM platform experience (Salesforce) is preferred.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and motivated to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Why Join Savills Life Sciences?
