• Content Sharing As part of client engagement, share marketing materials, thought leadership, and other valuable resources tailored to each contact’s interests and needs.
• Lead Generation Identify and engage new contacts within the pharmaceutical and drug delivery sectors to expand our network and influence.

• Someone who is both interested and interesting — able to engage clients with genuine enthusiasm and insight.
• Sufficient technical and clinical aptitude to be conversant in the technical domain of drug delivery, for example being able to appreciate the differences between pMDIs and DPIs with respect to delivery to the lung.
• Familiarity with key medical device development concepts including concept design, development, verification, transfer to manufacture, Human Factors engineering, and so on.
