Key highlights
- Public funding is usually never a full-time job. Most of the time, it's maximum 50% of their time.
- In younger companies (-30 employees), this task is the responsibility of either the CEO or the COO / Head of Ops.
- Once the team has grown (+30 employees), a finance and/or R&D department can take over this task.
- When this task is attached to an R&D team, the other tasks of the job are :
- Management of the research team
- Partnerships (medical and/or business)
- Marketing
- From a seniority perspective, this task is generally given to at least "manager" level with minimum +5 years experience.
