How You Will Contribute Lead commercial scenario planning by evaluating clinical outcomes, competitor developments, treatment changes, regulatory pathways, and potential commercialization options. Shape clinical development strategy by connecting endpoints, evidence requirements, patient needs, access considerations, and potential pricing implications. Refine the target product profile through market research, stakeholder insights, forecasting, and assessment of future treatment scenarios. Establish strategic decision frameworks that clarify available options, key assumptions, decision triggers, and recommendations for program investment. Guide cross-functional collaboration across clinical development, access, insights, manufacturing, medical, regulatory, and regional teams. Develop positioning and market strategy for potential standalone or combination use within a complex scientific-based treatment pathway. Engage scientific and senior stakeholders to test strategic options, communicate recommendations, and support informed decision-making.

Experience translating strategy into execution through insight generation, partner management, budget and timeline ownership, and delivery of critical assets. Ability to understand complex scientific evidence and communicate effectively with scientific experts, cross-functional partners, and senior leaders. Strong business judgment, communication, influencing, stakeholder management, and information-processing skills. Demonstrated ability to lead globally across functions, work independently, manage uncertainty, and deliver outcomes with minimal direction.
