The Company

　　We are Alloy Therapeutics—a biotechnology ecosystem company empowering the global scientific community to make better medicines together. Through a community of partners, we democratize access to pre-competitive tools, technologies, services, and company creation capabilities that are foundational for discovering and developing therapeutic biologics. The company facilitates affordable, non-exclusive access to the entire drug discovery community from academic scientists, small and medium biotech, to the largest biopharma. At Alloy, we believe our industry should compete on getting the best drugs to patients as quickly as possible, not exclusive access to the best platforms. As a reflection of our relentless commitment to the scientific community, we reinvest 100% of its revenue in innovation and access to innovation. MAY THE BEST DRUG WIN.

　　Alloy is headquartered in Waltham, MA with additional labs in Cambridge, UK; Basel, CH; and Athens, GA. Successful members thrive in our shared culture of accountability, deliberate trust, and open communication. As a team we aspire to work together to exceed expectations and collectively contribute across the global organization to always maintain our nimble, startup culture. Come thrive at Alloy!

　　The Team 

　　82VS was launched in 2020 to allow company builders and operators to efficiently launch new asset-centric companies leveraging Alloy’s drug discovery platforms, services, and company creation infrastructure. To date 82VS has founded nine asset-focused companies developing new medicines across the areas of oncology, immunology, ophthalmology, neurology, and rare diseases. Our current companies are developing antibody, antisense oligonucleotide, and TCR mimic therapeutics, but we are also working actively to build out multimodal therapeutics and expand our delivery capabilities (e.g., antibody conjugates, peptides).

　　We Discover

　　We are a venture studio leveraging Alloy’s pre-competitive drug discovery platforms. Established drug discovery, scientific, and lab resources allow entrepreneurs to start their first experiment on day one.

　　We Partner

　　We partner with academics, entrepreneurs, target-rich companies, pharma, and VC. We lead with our drug discovery work, helping others advance targets of interest.

　　We Build

　　We build asset-focused companies while continuing to incorporate new modalities and drug discovery platforms accessible throughout the Alloy ecosystem. Alloy creates new platforms and services on demand to support individual new companies if needed.

　　We Industrialize

　　We industrialize repeatable company launch processes across legal, HR, finance, operations, and marketing to minimize startup time and allow scientists to focus on the science.

　　The Role 

　　As a Venture Partner, you will be provided with agency to work and collaborate across scientific, operational, and business areas to build new biotech companies from idea to Series A and/or high-value M&A, whichever comes first. You will bring your “no task too small mentality” to all of your work and will manage everything from the smallest operational and scientific details to the largest strategic and business elements. You will work daily with Founders, drug discovery scientist, KOLs, VCs, and biopharma collaborators to build ideas into capital-efficient companies with investible asset-centric portfolios. This role requires a philosophical belief that out collaborating is better than out competing in the development of medicine. 

　　This role will report to the President of 82VS with autonomy owning various stakeholders, projects, and initiatives in a dynamic start-up environment while keeping up the pace of 82VS. This is you!

　　How You’ll Drive Impact 

　　Establish: create the most capital-efficient biotech companies with strong investible scientific narratives in a venture studio model. The model provides support including access to Alloy drug discovery platforms and R&D experts, early validating experimentation, lead discovery, lead optimization, target prioritization, fundraising strategy and access to capital. This enables our entrepreneurs to achieve financial independence in 18-24 months. You will be the Co-Founder that contributes irreplaceable value by picking up all of the loose ends of a company and optimizing operations for success to allow the CEO, CSO, and scientists to shine with their strengths and drive value for the company. 

　　Operate: step into the COO seat for your new companies and be accountable for all aspects of a new company including syndicating with other investors, incorporating new entities, developing and implementing strategic and operating plans including product roadmaps from concept to clinic, TCPs and TPPs, building budgets and forecasts, establishing strong KOL relationships and SAB, developing work plans with Alloy’s R&D teams and managing scientific operations, creating pitch decks, writing the investment memo and communications to investors, setting goals and executing with external partners, performing all marketing and communications, recruiting executives, and driving company to Series A financing and/or high-value M&A.

　　Negotiate: broker with potential partners (e.g., VC and pharma) and entrepreneurs to ensure fair and equitable relationships with our partners; strong fences build strong neighbors, which start with term sheets and sharing the common goal of making medicine together.

　　Transact: lead portfolio companies to equity financing and high value transactions with pharmaceutical/biotech partners to accelerate the discovery and development of the programs and medicines that we build by ensuring the narrative, fundraising materials, outreach, pitch, data, markets and data rooms are ready for our entrepreneur’s companies, supporting them through the process from the science bench to the company board. Success for a Venture Partner is seeing each of their companies achieve a Series A financing led by a world-class venture capital firm or M&A by a leading biopharma company, in order to accelerate the development of medicines and their access to the patients.
