About Iso
Isomorphic Labs (IsoLabs) was launched in 2021 to advance human health by building on and beyond the Nobel-winning AlphaFold system. Since then, our interdisciplinary team of drug discovery experts and machine learning specialists has built powerful new predictive and generative AI models that accelerate scientific discovery at digital speed.
Our name comes from the belief that there is an underlying symmetry between biology and information science. By harnessing AI’s powerful capabilities, we can use it to model complex biological phenomena to help design novel molecules, anticipate how drugs will perform and develop innovative medicines to treat and cure some of the world’s most devastating diseases.
We have built a world-leading drug design engine comprising AI models that are capable of working across multiple therapeutic areas and drug modalities. We are continually innovating on model architecture and developing cutting-edge capabilities to advance rational drug design.
Every day, and with each new breakthrough, we’re getting closer to the promise of digital biology, and achieving our ambitious mission to one day solve all disease with the help of AI.
Your impact
As an Operating Partner you'll work as a member of a compact, agile, and high-impact team specialising in catalysing business critical initiatives across Iso through partnership with cross-functional organisational leaders. Together, we drive operational excellence, maximising productivity and accelerating progress toward our mission. Because agility, organisation, and flawless execution are critical, this role will dynamically evolve alongside the needs of our team and the leaders you partner with.
What you will do
You’ll work alongside the VPs of AI and their wider organisation to deliver the highest-priority initiatives in their org areas, in particular where these are strategic in nature, require cross-organisational influence or are outside of the normal rhythms of the business.
- Thought-Partner: You’ll enable leaders and their teams to operate effectively by advising and soundboarding on their ideas for how to solve problems, accelerate, and maximise outputs across their organisation
- Prioritise and Coordinate: You will distinguish critical leadership priorities from support tasks, establishing clear ownership and empowering teams to act. With a keen sense of timing, you will know when to revive paused initiatives, align stakeholders, and deliver actionable plans.
- Deliver and Execute: You’ll focus your time on maximising the impact of key initiatives, particularly those outside the normal day-to-day operating patterns, or of the highest strategic importance. You’ll prepare, present and gain agreement on proposals among stakeholders and then influence teams to execute - leveraging strong communication skills. You’ll follow up, problem-solve, close loops in a timely fashion and drive initiatives to completion.
- Drive Cross-Functional Collaboration: You’ll build relationships with key stakeholders across Iso to gain a holistic understanding of the organisation, instilling high levels of trust and providing hands-on partnership on important projects.
- Translate and Communicate: You’ll translate complex technical developments into clear, high-impact executive summaries and strategic presentations for a variety of stakeholders, including board meetings and key management presentations.
