Jobbeschreibung

Innovation starts from the heart. At Edwards, we put patients first. We invest a significant proportion of our revenue towards research and development to drive and develop groundbreaking medical innovations for structural heart disease and critical care.

Patients with mitral and tricuspid heart valve disease often have complex conditions with limited treatment options. Our Transcatheter Mitral and Tricuspid Therapies (TMTT) business unit is boldly pursuing an innovative portfolio of technologies to address unmet clinical needs. It’s our driving force to help patients live longer and healthier lives. Join us and be part of our inspiring journey.

Your key responsibility will be developing relationships with heart failure specialists and general cardiologists, as well as in the interventional community, to increase awareness of interventional strategies for treating atrioventricular valve regurgitation. Building referral practices in the field and driving alignment, adoption, and execution of clinical trial therapy development initiatives, especially focused on your assigned area, will be your core duties.

Candidate location : Germany. Some level of travelling will be requested - approximately 25-30% (mainly within Germany and at EU congresses, society meetings).

How you will make an impact :

1. Identify restrictions to patient access within a region’s geography. Evaluate and identify creative sources and solutions to inform and influence the strategic business plan for patient outreach initiatives (e.g., recruitment events) for mitral and tricuspid patients along the clinical trial continuum in collaboration with stakeholders (e.g., physicians, research coordinators). Establish an understanding of referral dynamics and how patient access may be restricted or delayed within the clinical trial pathway.
2. Develop and maintain relationships with healthcare professionals (HCPs), including physicians and key staff, through outreach and education activities, referring HCP visits, product demonstrations, and conference participation within clinical research.

4. Provide technical expertise on devices, protocols, and on-site support for patient selection, screening, imaging, Heart Team concept, and clinical data across the Business Unit (TMTT mitral and tricuspid therapies).
5. Define opportunities along the Heart Team referral pathway to maximize patient access to key clinical trials.
6. Identify, influence, and meet with existing HCPs to understand clinical needs and constraints related to BU clinical trial protocol adoption.
7. Build timelines and set key deliverables aligned with overall business objectives.
8. Provide technical guidance on projects, including identifying trial site bottlenecks and collaborating with clinical affairs and cross-functional partners (e.g., training, trial management, screening).
9. Identify and analyze root causes of patient access restrictions between outreach efforts and patient pathways; ensure accurate tracking and documentation of all activities per clinical trial guidelines.

What you'll need (Required) :

• Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent in Life Sciences or related field; scientific/clinical background required.
