Job Description
BD Lab Specimen Management is seeking an Associate Director, Strategic Marketing & Partnerships to lead two connected growth priorities: developing strategic relationships with diagnostic instrument companies and advancing the partner ecosystem required to scale new innovations. This role will translate market, technology, customer, and partner insights into focused strategies, prioritized opportunities, and executable partnership plans.
The successful candidate will be comfortable operating at the intersection of marketing, business development, R&D, regulatory, medical affairs, regional commercial teams, and external partners. The individual must be able to move from rigorous analysis to executive recommendation and then to disciplined execution in an evolving, highly matrixed environment.
Responsibilities:
Instrument Company Partnership Strategy
- Lead the strategy and engagement model for priority diagnostics partners, reference Labs, and IDNs.
- Define mutually beneficial opportunities spanning technical compatibility, workflow integration, regulatory or clinical collaboration, co-development, co-marketing, and commercial growth.
- Partner with R&D, Regulatory Affairs, Medical Affairs, Quality, and regional teams to translate external requirements into testing plans, development priorities, evidence needs, and commercialization pathways.
- Create structured partner account plans, executive engagement agendas, governance models, decision logs, and value-realization metrics.
- Monitor instrument roadmaps, assay menus, automation trends, low-volume sample requirements, and emerging technologies to inform LSM portfolio and innovation choices.
New Innovation Strategic Marketing
- Shape the commercial and ecosystem strategy for new innovations, with emphasis on chronic disease and wellness testing across decentralized and non-traditional collection settings.
- Map and prioritize the partner ecosystem across collection-device companies, instrument companies, reference laboratories, health systems, DTC and digital-health platforms, kitters, logistics providers, and payers.
- Lead customer and partner discovery to understand analyte priorities, sample-volume needs, tube and automation requirements, workflow constraints, patient experience, logistics, and commercialization barriers.
- Develop market segmentation, value propositions, market models, business cases, scenarios, and go-to-market recommendations for new collection and testing offerings.
- Design pilot and validation concepts with external partners and internal teams, with clear learning objectives, success metrics, decision gates, and scale-up implications.
- Identify market-shaping needs, including evidence, reimbursement, workflow standardization, partner enablement, and adoption barriers.
Strategic Analysis and Executive Decision Support
- Synthesize market, competitive, technical, financial, and customer data into clear recommendations for senior leadership.
- Build robust market-sizing, revenue, margin, investment, risk, and sensitivity analyses to support portfolio and partnership decisions.
- Develop concise executive narratives, strategy papers, partnership recommendations, and leadership-ready presentations.
- Establish KPIs that track partnership health, milestone delivery, commercial potential, strategic value, and learning velocity.
- Maintain a fact-based view of competitive moves and external developments in decentralized diagnostics, capillary sampling, automation, and at-home testing.
Cross-Functional Leadership and Execution
- Lead through influence across global and regional teams without relying on direct authority.
- Convert strategy into workplans, owners, milestones, governance, and escalation paths that maintain pace and accountability.
- Partner with Business Development and Legal on partnership structures, agreements, commercial rights, data and evidence access, and value realization.
- Represent BD credibly in external executive meetings, technical workshops, industry events, and partner negotiations.
- Coach and support team members involved in strategic marketing, market research, analytics, and partnership execution.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:

- Experience working with technical, regulatory, clinical, and commercial stakeholders in a global matrixed organization.
Knowledge, Skills and Abilities
- Strategic and analytical rigor: able to structure complex questions, assess imperfect data, model scenarios, and identify the few insights that matter most.
- Partnership orientation: able to identify shared value, understand partner economics and incentives, and build trust across organizations.
- Diagnostics fluency: working understanding of the preanalytical-to-analytical workflow, including specimen collection, transport, processing, automation, analyzers, assays, laboratory operations, and regulatory considerations.
- Core laboratory ecosystem knowledge: strong understanding of major IVD companies, instrument platforms, laboratory automation, assay workflows, and the interaction between specimen collection systems and downstream analytical performance.
- External relationship building: demonstrated ability to establish and expand senior-level relationships across diagnostic companies and translate those relationships into strategic collaboration opportunities.
- Commercial acumen: strong grasp of market segmentation, value proposition development, pricing, go-to-market design, forecasting, and business-case development.
- Executive communication: exceptional written, verbal, presentation, and storytelling skills; able to make a clear recommendation and explain the supporting logic.
- Influence and collaboration: proven ability to align senior stakeholders and multidisciplinary teams across competing priorities.
- Learning agility: curiosity and willingness to go deep on new technologies, workflows, markets, and partner business models.
- Execution discipline: strong program management, prioritization, follow-through, and accountability in a fast-moving environment.
- Comfort with ambiguity: able to create structure, maintain momentum, and make sound recommendations before every variable is known.
- Global mindset and willingness to travel domestically and internationally up to approximately 20-25%.

Search Associate Media Director Jobs in New JerseyAssociate Media Director Jobs in New Jersey: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for associate media directors in New Jersey?
Large advertising holding companies with New Jersey operations, including Publicis Groupe and Dentsu, have filed H-1B visa Labor Condition Applications for media planning and buying roles. Corporate in-house teams at consumer goods and pharmaceutical companies along the Route 1 corridor, such as Johnson & Johnson, also sponsor associate media director positions. Mid-size independent agencies based in Jersey City and Hoboken occasionally sponsor as well.
Which visa types realistically cover associate media director roles in New Jersey?
The H-1B is the most common path, since associate media director roles typically require a bachelor's degree in marketing, advertising, or communications, meeting the specialty occupation standard. The E-3 visa is available to Australian nationals under the same specialty occupation criteria. H-1B1 visa is an option for Chilean and Singaporean nationals. F-1 students may work under OPT for up to 12 months before needing employer sponsorship. Experienced candidates may eventually pursue an EB-2 or EB-3 green card through PERM labor certification.
How to find associate media director visa sponsorship jobs in New Jersey?
Migrate Mate lists associate media director roles at New Jersey employers with verified visa sponsorship history, so you can focus your search on companies that have already filed for similar positions. Filtering by New Jersey narrows results to the northern metro corridor, Jersey City, and Newark, where most sponsoring employers are based. Reviewing each employer's past LCA filings on Migrate Mate helps confirm whether they sponsor at the associate director level specifically.
Which cities in New Jersey have the most associate media director sponsorship jobs?
Jersey City and Newark generate the highest concentration of associate media director openings, largely because of their proximity to Manhattan and the presence of agency satellite offices serving New York clients. The Route 1 corridor from New Brunswick to Princeton hosts corporate marketing teams at pharmaceutical and technology companies that also sponsor this role. Hoboken and Parsippany round out the main hiring clusters for media leadership positions in the state.
Are there state-specific factors that affect visa sponsorship for associate media directors in New Jersey?
New Jersey's position in the New York designated market area means many associate media directors work across both states, which employers must account for in Labor Condition Applications when workers are based at a New Jersey office but serve New York clients. The state's dense concentration of pharmaceutical and consumer packaged goods companies also creates in-house media roles outside the traditional agency track, broadening sponsorship opportunities compared with states that rely primarily on advertising agencies.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored associate media director jobs in New Jersey?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
