We are BIG HQ
Located in brussels, the heart of europe, the BIG headquarters (HQ) consists of five teams of motivated and dedicated people working every day to move BIG’s research agenda forward and provide management support to the executive board and the general assembly.
Who works at BIG HQ?
As a multicultural and multilingual workplace, members of the BIG HQ team, with various origins from all around the world (such as the Philippines, Bolivia, Italy, Russia and South Africa), work closely together in a stimulating environment. Their variety of points of view and ideas result in a rich and diverse team atmosphere. Each one with a different background but sharing the same important visions for the future: to find cures for breast cancer and make a difference in the lives of many women, men and families affected by the disease.
