Board Member - Northeast
Our client is an emerging Biopharmaceutical company primarily focused on the development and distribution of drugs to treat cancer.
With the added burden placed on public corporations with the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Bill, our client is seeking to strengthen the Board's expertise by adding an additional outside Director. This individual will have broad business skills with particular expertise in establishing sound corporate business strategies. While the Board has world class representation across scientific, financial, and legal sectors it is somewhat under represented on broader business issues. Thus, an individual who has risen through the Marketing, Sales, Corporate Planning, etc. functions within a major Pharmaceutical/Biotechnology firm to a Senior Management role would fit well with the needs of the Board.
Given the stature of the Board the individual must have consummate business skills, industry background, and performance. The Board works proactively with the senior management and is active in governance of the Corporation as required in today's environment and necessary for achievement of business objectives.
