Your Role
At the intersection of global medical strategy and regional patient reality, this Director level role carries real weight. As the Regional Medical Affairs Lead for the Middle East, Africa, and Russia (MEAR) region within the Oncology and Rare Tumors therapeutic area, you will serve as the critical bridge between global medical strategy and the countries that bring it to life. You will translate evidence based global priorities into meaningful regional medical plans, and equally, you will ensure that country level insights, unmet patient needs, and scientific realities shape the decisions made at the global level.
Operating with considerable autonomy, you will lead regional medical readiness for launches, new indications, and major data milestones. You will connect country medical  teams with the scientific expertise, evidence, and narrative they need, while partnering closely with Commercial, Market Access,Regulatory, and Clinical Development colleagues across the region. You will represent Medical Affairs with scientific independence and integrity, escalating strategic issues to global leadership and enabling cross country learning and collaboration.
This is a role for a senior medical professional who thrives in complexity, influences without authority, and is motivated by improving outcomes for patients across diverse healthcare environments.

  • You have a proven track record of working across multiple countries and influencing senior stakeholders effectively within a matrix organization.
  • You are skilled at translating clinical evidence and regional insights into clear strategic recommendations, with sound judgment on scientific integrity and medical governance.
