• Lead or contribute to cross‑regional medical initiatives spanning Europe, Canada and Japan.
• Drive scientific engagement through multiple channels, including expert meetings, advisory boards, congresses and digital engagement.
• Identify evidence gaps and collaborate across functions to develop strategies that address future scientific and clinical needs.
• Contribute to publication planning, investigator‑sponsored research and International Medical studies that support scientific leadership.
• Partner effectively with Clinical Development, Regulatory Affairs, Commercial, Market Access, Medical Communications and affiliate teams to ensure aligned execution across International markets.
