• Convert insights from healthcare professionals, advisory boards, congresses and the field into sharper strategy, stronger innovation and better clinical development.
• Build influential partnerships with key opinion leaders, investigators, professional societies and clinical networks.
• Lead regional advisory boards, expert meetings, scientific engagements and evidence-generation projects.
• Shape therapy positioning, launch readiness, clinical claims, customer education, product lifecycle plans and future innovation.
• Review scientific, educational and promotional materials to ensure they meet company standards and local and regional requirements.
• Coach colleagues, raise medical capability and represent the organisation at major customer engagements, congresses and training events.

What you bring

• A Medical Doctor qualification and at least five years of relevant clinical experience in acute care, intensive care, nephrology, renal replacement therapy or extracorporeal therapies.
• Deep knowledge of CRRT and related acute therapies, with the confidence to interpret data and make complex science clear.
• A strong record in medical education, scientific presentation and engagement with healthcare professionals and external experts.
• Excellent written and spoken English, plus the relevant local language for your market.
• Strategic judgement, intellectual curiosity and the ability to deliver across countries, cultures and functions.
• Strong knowledge of medical communication, ethics, compliance and, where applicable, GCP.
• The drive to take ownership, manage competing priorities and turn plans into results.

Even better if you have

• Regional or international Medical Affairs leadership experience.
• Experience in clinical research, registries, real-world evidence or GCP-governed activities.
• Recent clinical practice and experience educating healthcare professionals.
• Postgraduate specialist training, a PhD or another advanced qualification in a relevant discipline.
• Experience synthesising literature and presenting science to external audiences.

Location and travel
