Before Draup

1

Limited Visibility into Talent Intelligence

Fragmented data on external talent across Gene Therapy, CMC Quality, and Commercial roles hindered targeted hiring and succession planning.

2

Time-Intensive Role Mapping

Depended on recruiter networks and agencies for senior hires, slowing down searches and reducing scalability.

3

Unstructured Peer Benchmarking

Required extensive manual research to understand peer organizational models, limiting clarity on optimal Commercial, Quality, and R&D structures.

4

Geographical Concentration

Workforce planning was heavily centered in Boston, with limited data on regional or national talent supply.

The Core Challenges

To unify mid-to-senior talent intelligence across therapeutic areas.

To build visibility into peer organizational models for data-backed restructuring.

To accelerate senior role mapping and enhance workforce scalability.

To expand geographic insights for balanced hiring across U.S. regions.
