Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Business Development Manager Jobs at Amgen Jobs
Frame your science background precisely
Amgen's BD roles require direct engagement with biologics, oncology pipelines, or biosimilar portfolios. Tailor your resume to reflect therapeutic area fluency, not just deal experience, so hiring managers can justify a specialty occupation case to USCIS.
Verify Amgen's LCA filings before applying
The DOL's OFLC disclosure data shows which job titles and locations Amgen has filed Labor Condition Applications for. Cross-reference Business Development Manager listings against past LCA records to confirm the role has a clear sponsorship precedent at that site.
Target Amgen's alliance management and licensing teams
Amgen's BD function is split across deal origination, alliance management, and corporate venture. Roles tied to in-licensing or external innovation partnerships historically require specialized scientific credentials that support a strong specialty occupation argument for H-1B petitions.
Clarify E-3 eligibility before your offer call
If you hold Australian citizenship, the E-3 visa skips the H-1B lottery entirely and allows year-round filing. Confirm your degree field aligns with the BD Manager role description before your offer conversation so Amgen's immigration team can move quickly after acceptance.
Account for PERM timelines if you want permanence
Amgen has sponsored Green Cards under EB-2 and EB-3 for corporate functions. If long-term residency matters to you, ask during negotiation whether the BD Manager role is eligible for PERM sponsorship, since current DOL processing can run 18 months or more.
Use Migrate Mate to find open roles quickly
Amgen posts Business Development Manager openings across multiple locations and sub-functions. Use Migrate Mate to filter actively sponsored BD roles at Amgen by visa type, so you're applying to positions where sponsorship is already confirmed rather than guessing from the job description.

Find Business Development Manager at Amgen JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Amgen sponsor H-1B visas for Business Development Managers?
Yes, Amgen sponsors H-1B visas for Business Development Manager roles. Because BD positions at Amgen require engagement with complex biologics or therapeutic pipeline strategy, they typically qualify as specialty occupations under USCIS standards. Candidates with degrees in life sciences, biochemistry, or a related field combined with commercial experience are the strongest fit for H-1B sponsorship in this function.
How do I apply for Business Development Manager jobs at Amgen?
Apply directly through Amgen's careers portal or browse verified sponsorship-confirmed listings on Migrate Mate. When applying, emphasize therapeutic area knowledge alongside deal-making or alliance management experience. Amgen's BD roles often require cross-functional collaboration with R&D and regulatory teams, so highlighting that credibility in your application materials significantly strengthens your candidacy.
Which visa types does Amgen commonly use for Business Development Manager roles?
Amgen sponsors H-1B, E-3, TN, F-1 OPT, F-1 CPT, J-1, and Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3 for eligible candidates. For BD Manager roles specifically, H-1B is most common for candidates without treaty-based alternatives. Australian citizens frequently pursue the E-3 route, which bypasses the H-1B lottery and allows direct consular processing with a certified Labor Condition Application from DOL.
What qualifications does Amgen expect for a sponsored Business Development Manager?
Amgen's BD Manager roles typically require a degree in a life sciences discipline, an MBA, or both, along with demonstrated experience in pharmaceutical or biotech deal structuring, licensing, or alliance management. Candidates without a directly relevant degree may face a more complex specialty occupation determination at USCIS, so aligning your academic background to the specific role description before applying matters.
How do I plan my timeline when pursuing H-1B sponsorship through Amgen?
If you need an H-1B cap-subject filing, Amgen must register you in USCIS's annual lottery, which opens each March for an October 1 start date. Build your job search timeline around those windows. If you're currently on F-1 OPT, confirm your OPT end date against the October start and ask Amgen's immigration team early whether a cap-gap extension or premium processing will be needed to bridge any gap.
