Operating with a lean, agile structure, the company is known for bringing innovative, high‑value treatments to patients with serious unmet medical needs. With two late‑stage therapies approaching launch in the UK, the affiliate is entering a major growth phase and is building a team capable of shaping strategy, driving impactful pre‑launch work, and delivering successful market introductions.

• Lead pre‑launch planning, launch readiness, and post‑launch optimisation
• Develop compelling positioning, messaging, and integrated brand plans
• Partner closely with Medical and the commercial team to ensure aligned execution
• Operate broadly across strategic and operational tasks - ideal for someone who enjoys variety and accountability
• Contribute to building the future structure and capability of a growing UK affiliate

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in marketing and launching high‑cost specialty or hospital‑based therapies
• Solid understanding of UK access pathways, HTA considerations, and payer engagement
• Ability to drive both marketing and access‑related initiatives with confidence
• Someone who enjoys working in lean, agile environments with broad ownership
• A proactive and driven marketer motivated by the chance to make a real impact in areas of significant patient need

Why This Role Matters

This role offers the opportunity to shape two major UK launches in areas of high unmet need, influence commercial and access strategy, and help bring innovative therapies to patients with limited treatment options. Ideal for someone who thrives on complexity, visibility, and high impact.
