About the opportunity

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced clinical professional with a passion for education to join the Infant Care Division of Fisher & Paykel Healthcare. In this role, you will have a global impact—helping to improve care and outcomes for some of the most vulnerable patients in the hospital: newborns and infants.

We are seeking an exceptional individual to lead a dynamic clinical portfolio with a strong clinical education focus, supporting a range of innovative medical devices. The role has global reach and spans multiple aspects of clinical affairs, working closely with research and development, field-based clinical specialists, and international clinical experts.

This position is ideally suited to a clinician (particularly from a paediatric or neonatal nursing background) who enjoys translating evidence and complex clinical concepts into meaningful, practical education.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the development and delivery of clinical education and training to ensure clear, accurate, and consistent clinical messaging
• Partner with subject matter experts to create education for a range of internal and external stakeholders
• Develop and maintain a structured global clinical education programme for sales teams and customers
• Lead internal clinical education initiatives for research and development teams
• Drive alignment between:
• Research and Development teams
• Fisher & Paykel Healthcare clinical specialists in the field
• International clinical experts and key opinion leaders
• Provide direct clinical input into product development activities
• Support pre-market clinical investigations
• Contribute to the synthesis of clinical evidence to support regulatory submissions (e.g. systematic literature reviews)
• Support risk management and post-market clinical activities

About you

• Postgraduate qualification in Health Sciences or a related field
• 3–5 years’ experience supporting clinical practice change through education, training, or clinical research in a healthcare environment
• Sound knowledge of human anatomy and physiology
• Good understanding of ICH/GCP and ethical principles for conducting medical device investigations, particularly in vulnerable populations
• Transferable technical skills relevant to working with and contributing to medical device development
• Strong science and clinical communication skills, including presenting to diverse audiences
• Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and goals

Desirable Experience

• Real-world clinical experience, ideally as a paediatric or neonatal nurse, or within physiotherapy, respiratory therapy, or allied health
• Demonstrated ability to build and maintain strong professional relationships and collaborative networks
• Experience conducting systematic literature reviews and synthesising evidence into in-depth clinical reports
• Understanding of the US and European medical device regulatory environments
