In 2007, ClearView was founded based on the belief that companies driving innovation in the life sciences need a partner that can combine deep scientific expertise and sound business instincts to create actionable and impactful results. In our industry, we know that the quality of our work is rooted in our team, which is why we have always hired consultants who combine their intellectual curiosity and business savvy with deep scientific backgrounds. The success of this formula has enabled us to become the largest independent life-science focused strategy consultancy, with offices in in Boston, New York, and San Francisco.

Our people are fundamental to our success, which is why ClearView fosters a collaborative community that empowers individuals to drive innovative thinking, challenge the status quo, and become leaders in the life sciences industry.

CASE-BASED ONBOARDING

Every new ClearViewer participates in a case-based training in their first week at ClearView. This case-based training gives new hires the opportunity to experience all of the aspects of a ClearView project, including mock calls with physicians, real secondary research, and a final presentation of their findings to their “client”. After the first week, there is a second week of training modules where new members of the team learn the skills they will need to excel and grow at ClearView.

Work-life Balance :

TEAM BUILDING EVENTS

Empowering our teams to socialize outside of the project setting is at the heart of ClearView’s culture. The Team Building initiative focuses on providing our colleagues with opportunities and resources to build lasting relationships. From after work drinks and quarterly events to birthday celebrations and holiday festivities, we never miss a chance to spend time with one another.

WELLNESS AND FAMILY SUSTAINABILITY

The Wellness Initiative focuses on promoting health, work-life balance, and positive morale in the office. Activities such as plant cart, therapy dogs, and ice cream socials provide the opportunity to take a break and relax. In-office yoga sessions, healthy breakfast spreads, and a weekly running club encourage ClearViewers to stay healthy and active during the work week. Additionally, for those who have a family or are interested in starting one, the Family Sustainability Forum is a space to discuss the success and challenges of finding harmony between work life and family life.

ON-GOING TRAINING

There are constant opportunities for improvement and growth throughout your tenure at ClearView, from training immersion days – all-day training programs designed to teach new skills as you progress through your career – to oral communications workshops – 1-hour small-group sessions with a member of the leadership to work on your individual presentation goals.

MENTORSHIP PROGRAMS

ClearView’s training doesn’t stop with our formal programs. After the initial two-week training, every new member of the team shadows a tenured ClearViewer for their first few months so that they can practice and enhance their consulting skillset in a real project setting. In addition, every ClearViewer is paired with a coach from our extended leadership team for personalized, one-on-one coaching throughout their tenure.
