This is the operative backbone behind the company's

It is a
senior individual contributor role
(no direct reports), sitting alongside Legal rather than inside it.

- Monitor

- Coordinate cross-functionally with Commercial, Finance, Supply Chain, Regulatory and Compliance
- Translate the contracted portfolio into clear, workable terms for the market
What You Must Bring
- Applications will only be considered from candidates who demonstrate the following:
- **3+ years**
- in alliance management, contract lifecycle management, licensing, or commercial contracting — in an
- in-house
- setting
- Hands-on experience owning
- licensing and/or distribution agreements
- end-to-end (not purely advisory or drafting support)
- **Pharmaceutical, life sciences, medical device, or healthcare distribution**
- experience, or directly transferable B2B contracting experience in a regulated industry
- Genuine
- commercial literacy
- — able to read and manage contracts in a business sense, not only a legal one
- A background in
- Law, Economics, or equivalent or equal role
- Proven
- cross-functional coordination
- across Legal, Finance, Commercial and Regulatory
- Fluent English (Arabic is a plus)
- Based in the UAE or willing to relocate to Dubai; comfortable in an office-based role
Please Note
This is
not a pure legal or advisory role
.
Candidates whose experience is limited to legal advisory, litigation, or compliance without hands-on ownership of commercial/distribution agreements will not be a fit for this position.
Please only apply if your background matches the requirements above.
