ARC collaborates with leading industry partners, startups, and academic institutions to transform groundbreaking clinical knowledge and research into innovative healthcare solutions at a global scale.

Our Business Development team leads strategic partnerships and end-to-end commercialization processes for Sheba’s intellectual property portfolio across Pharma, MedTech, and Digital Health — from early-stage concepts through commercial deals and strategic collaborations.

We are looking for a highly motivated Business Development Manager with strong commercial orientation and experience in medical innovation to join a dynamic role at the intersection of science, strategy, and business development.

In this role, you will be responsible for advancing early-stage medical technologies and innovation initiatives — from evaluating clinical and commercial potential, through building commercialization strategies, to creating partnerships and closing deals.

• Conduct scientific and commercial evaluations of early-stage technologies and identify market fit opportunities across Pharma, MedTech, and Digital Health.
• Develop business plans and Go-To-Market (GTM) strategies in collaboration with physicians, researchers, and innovation leaders.
• Perform market analysis, competitive landscape assessments, target audience mapping, and strategic partnership evaluations.
• Build and manage relationships with pharmaceutical companies, MedTech companies, venture capital funds, startups, and healthcare investors.
• Lead end-to-end deal processes — from initial outreach and relationship building to negotiations and agreement execution.
• Support funding and grant strategies for entrepreneurs and clinical innovators.

• At least 2 years of experience in Business Development, Strategy, Technology Licensing, or Technology Transfer roles.
• Significant advantage for experience in HealthTech, Pharma, MedTech, or Medical Innovation environments.
• Proven experience advancing early-stage technologies toward partnerships, licensing agreements, or commercial deals.
• Strong ability to work independently, take initiative, and drive results.
• Financial and strategic understanding, including familiarity with investments, venture creation, and cap table structures.
• Strong familiarity with the U.S. healthcare market — a major advantage.
• Existing network within the medical innovation ecosystem and the ability to further expand it.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to clearly and persuasively convey complex ideas.
• Academic background in Biomedical Engineering, Life Sciences, or another relevant field; advanced degree — an advantage.
