Looking to work as a life science consultant at a boutique or large firm in the near future based out of SF, Chicago or Europe. Currently live in Atlanta.

Big 4 and Accenture has life science practice. Start there?

What kind of consulting In biotech?

R&D, market research, strategy, analytics

You may want to look at VCs instead. Biotech consultant is good, but VCs will give you better expose maybe

That’s accurate and difficult without a PhD. I have an MS in BME and top 5 MBA. Was hard to swing VC

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?
