Key skills for this role
The Senior Director, Corporate Development & Licensing (BD&L) is a senior individual contributor and deal architect responsible for identifying, evaluating, and executing strategic transactions that expand Ani Pharmaceuticals' rare disease pipeline and commercial footprint. This role sits at the intersection of science, finance, and strategy — requiring a professional who is equally comfortable presenting to a Board of Directors, structuring a term sheet, and building relationships.
The ideal candidate brings a strong transactional background — ideally with experience in investment banking, or in-house corporate development at a specialty pharma or biotech — paired with a demonstrated ability to move deals from first contact through close. This is a high-visibility role with direct exposure to senior leadership, external partners, and key opinion leaders across rare disease and specialty therapeutics. This is a hybrid position requiring three days per week in the office.
We are a publicly traded pharmaceuticals company committed to improving patient outcomes through the development, manufacturing, and commercialization of innovative therapies. Our Legal and Compliance team is a strategic partner to the business, supporting a dynamic portfolio of branded, generic, and specialty pharmaceutical products. We foster a culture built on integrity, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose.
At ANI Pharmaceuticals, there are opportunities to contribute to our purpose every day. We value authenticity, knowledge, and hard work, we strive to celebrate our employees in a positive environment. Our culture empowers everyone to be successful and apply our full potential.
