Step 2: Upcoming Open Positions at Life Science Nutraceuticals, Inc. (LSN).
Position #1: Sales Director, Middle East
Location: Saudi Arabia
Reports to: Executive Director, Asia Division
LSN’s Asia Division will be opening its first Middle East location in Saudi Arabia in the next 12 months. A Sales Director will be needed to head up this new division. A team of local salespeople will need to be recruited, hired, and trained by this leader. It is expected that this sales team may be largely men.

Position #2: Director of Research and Development (R&D)
Location: Headquarters, Miami, Florida
Reports to: VP of Headquarter Operations
R&D is at the heart of LSN’s success, and, indeed, it is the future. The leader of Research and Development will lead a group of scientists and innovators but does not need to be a scientist himself/herself. R&D is located centrally at LSN Headquarters because R&D coordinates with all other departments and divisions. This is a high-profile position.
Position #3: VP of Headquarter Operations
Location: Headquarters, Miami, Florida
Reports to: President and CEO
The Headquarters houses R&D, HR, IT, Purchasing, and Finance. Each department has its own “subculture,” and each department is fairly distinct from the other. The young, youthful subculture of IT often clashes with the conservative subculture of the Finance department, for example. Many of the members of the Finance and HR teams are baby boomers and are near retirement. This leader oversees the smooth operation of all of these departments and ensures the coordination of these departments with each other and with each of the four geographic divisions across the world.
Position #4: Executive Director, North American Division
Location: Chicago, Illinois
Reports to: President and CEO
This leader will head up the largest and most profitable division of LSN. This division is seen as the “flagship” by the other divisions since LSN roots are in the United States. This Executive Director has the “ear” of the CEO and spends a lot of time with the Marvel family. This leader is faced with spearheading the future direction of LSN in North America and is challenged with filling openings throughout the United States and Canada caused by fast growth and a retiring Baby Boomer population.
Position #5: Director of Finance
Location: Headquarters, Miami, Florida
Reports to: Chief Financial Officer
This leader oversees the day-to-day operations of the finance department. This leader is expected to aid in strategic planning with the executive team of LSN. Although a finance background is not required, this person is expected to bring a conservative approach to the strategic planning table to balance out the high-risk tolerance of the rest of the leadership at LSN. A “big picture” perspective is definitely needed here.
