Data Consultant
The life sciences industry plays a significant role in advancing healthcare and improving the quality of life - in many cases, saving millions of lives globally. At BASE life science, this is the motivation for everything we do, aimed at pushing boundaries, seeking excellence, and making a lasting difference through consulting expertise and data-driven solutions.
Who is BASE life science?
Founded in 2015, BASE life science is a business and technology consulting company working exclusively in life sciences, built on a simple purpose: grow our people, and deliver real impact for our customers.
We don't think AI is a feature you bolt onto existing systems — we think it's the layer through which a life sciences company's strategy actually gets executed, end to end. Most of the industry is still proving AI can do one task at a time, function by function, pilot by pilot. We're building toward something bigger: AI that runs across clinical, regulatory, quality, and commercial work instead of stopping at the edges of a single application.
With headquarters in Denmark and offices across Spain, Switzerland, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, and the US, we work with top-10 pharma and ambitious biotechs alike, and with technology partners including Veeva, Salesforce, IQVIA, Google, AWS, Microsoft, and Amass — turning that belief into deployed, compliant, sellable solutions, not slideware.
About the role
We are looking for a proactive, enthusiastic, and versatile Data Consultant to join our team in Spain.
In this role, you will work at the intersection of technology, business, and the life sciences domains, with a strong focus on data migration projects.

SQL, Excel, Ubuntu/Linux, VS Code, Azure DevOps, GitHub, PuTTY/WinSCP, Jira, and Confluence to analyse data, define transformation logic, document approaches, and support project delivery. At the same time, success in the role depends on your ability to collaborate closely with clients and colleagues, communicate clearly, and challenge constructively when needed.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys combining technical problem-solving with client interaction, and who wants to grow in a dynamic consulting environment within life sciences.
As a Data Consultant, your responsibilities will include:

- Strong proficiency in Python, including experience with version control, code sharing, and team-based development practices
- Advanced experience skills in Microsoft Office, including very good Excel skills and solid presentation skills in PowerPoint
- A structured and analytical mindset, with the ability to turn requirements into clear logic and practical solutions
- Confidence in working directly with customers, including asking questions, challenging constructively, and presenting solutions
- Curiosity, a willingness to learn, and motivation to grow your experience
- High attention to detail and a quality-focused way of working
- A proactive, team-oriented attitude and the ability to work independently when needed
Additionally, it is an advantage if you have experience with:
