1 THE DIGEST OF BIOTECH JOB TRENDS IN MASSACHUSET TS QUARTERLY LIFE SCIENCES JOB MARKET REPORT: Q4 2017

2 ABOUT THE REPORT About the 3-Month Report MassBioEd produces a 3-Month Report on biopharmaceutical job trends each quarter of the year. The report compares job listings for the most current three-month period with job listings for the same three-month period of the previous year to determine underlying trends in job listings. About the MassBioEd Foundation MassBioEd s mission is to build a sustainable life sciences workforce in the region through educational programs that inspire and propel students, engage and excite teachers, and illuminate the pathway from classroom to careers. About The Digest of Biotech Jobs Trends in Massachusetts The Quarterly Report is a part of MassBioEd s ongoing Digest of Biotech Jobs Trends in Massachusetts, which also includes Briefs, a Medical Device Snapshot, and an annual Job Trends Forecast. The Briefs present basic data and analysis on particular aspects of biopharma industry job trends. The objectives in publishing the Briefs is to provide basic information about job listings trends, skills required of candidates, and prevalence of degree requirements for high trending occupations. The Annual Job Trends Forecast is intended to provide greater insight based on additional study in these areas. Acknowledgements The primary researcher and author of the 3-Month Report is Mark Bruso, Manager of Labor Market Research, under the direction of MassBioEd Foundation Executive Director, Peter Abair. Erica Dickinson, Product Support Manager at Burning Glass, provided able assistance to the MassBioEd research team in effectively using data from Burning Glass Technologies. MassBio, the industry council serving the biopharmaceutical community of the Massachusetts region, provided support for this series and MassBioEd s ongoing job trends initiative.

They were measured against their preceding 12-month trend. STEM-related positions that grew much faster in Q4 than their quarterly average from the past year were Clinical Data Managers (+78%), Computer Scientists (+57%), Mechanical Engineers (+20%), Lab Technologists (+5%), Research Managers (+5%), and Biomedical Engineers (+2%). This was against a backdrop of widespread declines in job openings for most openings. At left, occupations with much lower or higher changes than average are highlighted.

11 Top Employers By STEM, Q Complete list of employers, and map of regions begins on Page 12 At left are the leading companies in Q4 by their statewide job listings for all job types. Unsurprisingly, companies with large operations in Cambridge lead the way Takeda, Biogen, Sanofi Genzyme, and others. For STEM openings, generally the same organizations topped the list. Research hospitals and universities generally had a higher share of STEM openings than biotech companies MGH and Partners lead the way. 11

24 APPENDIX MassBioEd utilizes Burning Glass Labor Insight for the bulk of its real-time online job listing data. Per the description on Burning Glass website, their Labor Insight software collects millions of online job postings [everyday] from close to 40,000 sources and applies [their] patented technology to mine and code detailed data from each posting, describing the specific skills, education, experience, and work activities required for the job going well beyond the occupation and industry codes offered in other sources. All job listings data is sourced from Burning Glass Labor Insight, unless otherwise noted. Employment numbers were derived from the Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), a survey of employers that covers 98 percent of all workers in the country. Staffing patterns, or the count of individual occupations by industry in the state, were found by using Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupation Employment Statistics (OES) Research Estimates. These are derived from sample surveys and thus are approximations subject to sampling error, as well as nonsampling errors by respondents filling out the surveys. 24
