Description
What We Do
Research and Development in the pharmaceutical industry is time-consuming, expensive, and often overlooks valuable data insights. We’re changing that with AI-powered data science solutions that uncover hidden insights to support more efficient and informed drug discovery. Using AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP), our technology extracts and structures data from millions of scientific documents, identifying causal biological relationships and organising them into knowledge graphs. This advanced data science empowers bioinformaticians and biologists with a deeper understanding of the connections between diseases, proteins, and drugs.
Our team consists of biomedical and data science experts with real-world lab and pharmaceutical experience. These specialists ensure that our solutions are scientifically grounded, delivering accurate, reliable data to our customers.
The Company
Biorelate is a venture backed Series A startup (supported by established Tech investors). If you’re eager to collaborate with exceptional scientists, software engineers, and subject matter experts from various fields in a supportive, ego-free environment, Biorelate is the place for you.
Key Responsibilities
- Own each account from kickoff and onboarding through to measurable scientific outcomes, with an adoption plan for each team and use case.
- Run use case workshops that turn research problems (target identification, safety assessment, competitive intelligence, literature synthesis) into prioritised use cases.
- Grow active and chargeable users by developing champions, reaching new teams, and getting researchers to their first real result quickly.
- Own renewals and gross revenue retention (GRR), starting renewal planning at least 120 days before each renewal date.
- Run QBRs and regular check-ins, and keep account plans and health scores current using usage data.
- Spot declining usage early and lead the recovery plan when an account is at risk.
- Set up and troubleshoot API, MCP and Web deployments, and build prompts and example workflows around customers' own research questions.
- Check the quality of outputs, and escalate issues to Engineering with clear reproduction details.
- Answer security and governance questions, and route non-standard work to Forward Deployed Engineering.
- Partner with the Account Manager, who owns contracting and expansion deals, by supplying adoption data, ROI evidence and expansion signals.
- Feed customer feedback to Product, and help roll out betas, launches and training materials.
- Support technical pre-sales conversations and represent Biorelate at conferences.

- A track record of moving usage numbers through structured plans, not only managing relationships.
- Experience owning renewals or GRR targets with enterprise customers.
- Experience running QBRs with senior stakeholders.
