Director, Partnerships Office

About the role

The Partnership Office at Alloy Therapeutics runs one of the most active business development (BD) operations in biotech, managing dozens of live threads covering platform licensing, co-development, R&D service partnerships, and company creation. This role translates conversations, ideas, and partial inputs into clear, high-quality deliverables that move work forward.

Responsibilities

• Own and produce a high volume of partnership deliverables (proposals, decks, emails, term sheets, and briefing documents) at speed and partner-readiness.
• Operate as an extension of the Chief Business Officer, advancing priorities, following up without prompting, and keeping workstreams moving.
• Manage cross-divisional pipeline initiatives across all active threads: follow up with counterparties, and flag where things are slowing down.
• Build clear, effective materials that translate partnership ideas into something others can quickly understand and act on.
• Draft external communications, including partner outreach, follow-ups, and conference-related materials.
• Prepare materials for partner meetings, board updates, and executive reviews.
• Identify gaps in execution, take ownership of issues, and improve how the operation runs by identifying friction points and putting simple systems in place to address them.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in biotech, biopharma, consulting, CRO/CDMO, or a related environment with exposure to partnerships, BD, or commercial work.
• Working knowledge of the biotech landscape, including drug discovery, platform technologies, and partnership models.
• Strong track record of operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where priorities shift and direction may be limited.
• Clear ownership mindset – able to take work from initial input through to completion without heavy oversight.
• Excellent written communicator, with the ability to produce polished work across formats quickly.
• Strong prioritization skills and the ability to manage multiple active threads at once.
• Comfortable using AI tools to support research, drafting, and execution.
• Expert level ability to build clear, effective narratives and presentations in PowerPoint or Google Slides.

Benefits

• Competitive base and equity compensation commensurate with level of experience and independence.
• 401(k) company match.
• Generous personal and family medical, dental, and vision benefits with 100% of premiums and deductibles covered.
• Company-paid disability (STD, LTD) and life insurance.
• Paid Parental Leave.
• Family planning support up to $45,000 (e.g., IVF/PGT, adoption, surrogacy, egg retrieval).
• Annual stipend for continuing education with commitment to your career through individualized professional development plan.
• Wellness and Extensive Employee Assistance Program (EAP) including resources for mental wellness.
