• Excellent communication skills and scientific literacy; confident working with Medical Affairs and external experts.

• Identify key barriers and risks to launch success, design mitigation plans and track impact across markets.
• Develop stakeholder segmentation and engagement strategies across HCPs, payers and patient organisations, ensuring fair-balanced, compliant materials and interactions.
