MEP Office Leader - Pharma / Biotech

MEP Office Leader - Pharma
Silver Spring, MD

Full-Time

A firm that works exclusively in pharmaceutical and biotech engineering is opening a mid-Atlantic office and hiring an MEP Office Leader to run it. This is a leadership role responsible for client relationships, business development, project delivery, and team growth across the DC, Baltimore, and Fredericksburg pharma and biotech market. A small team is already in place in Maryland.

Schedule
Full-time.

Compensation
$180,000 to $250,000 per year.

What You'll Do
This leader builds and manages client relationships across the region's pharmaceutical and biotech community, leads proposals, and oversees MEP or process engineering work delivered out of the office. The role includes growing office headcount as project volume grows, and carries direct ownership of business development and project delivery outcomes rather than a supporting BD function alongside engineering work. Because the firm works exclusively in life sciences, all projects, client relationships, and hiring decisions are within the pharma and biotech sector.
