The Job Details Are As Follows

Who we are

We are the first publicly-traded biotech or pharmaceutical company to take the form of a public benefit corporation. Our public benefit purpose is to provide a brighter future for patients through the development of novel pharmaceutical therapies; and technologies that expand the availability of transplantable organs.

United Therapeutics (Nasdaq: UTHR) seeks to travel down the corridors of indifference to develop treatments for rare, deadly diseases. We were founded in 1996 by a family seeking a cure for their daughter’s pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Today, we have six FDA-approved therapies that treat PAH, pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and neuroblastoma, a rare pediatric cancer. Our near-term pipeline seeks to develop additional therapies for PAH and pulmonary fibrosis (PF).

The cure for end-stage life-threatening diseases like PAH, PH-ILD, PF, and many others is an organ transplant, but only a small percentage of donated organs are available to address the vast need. For this reason, we are working to create manufactured organs to address the shortage of kidneys, hearts, lungs, and livers available for transplant. We believe an unlimited supply of tolerable, transplantable organs will eliminate the transplant waiting list and cure end-stage organ diseases for which transplant is not currently an option.

Who you are

You are a strategic thinker who is able to see the big picture, identify gaps and provide solutions to fill them. You have experience designing, executing, and managing strategic studies in addition to designing and implementing tactics for phase IV data generation. You love collaborating with teams like Product Development and Marketing to support products throughout their lifecycle (launch planning, medicine development plans, project team meetings, etc.), and have also been successful partnering with KOL's and other thought leaders to elicit involvement and feedback on key medical strategies. You always stay abreast of developments, gather information, and effectively communicate insight on Medical Affairs activities to leverage critical data and synthesize information for key stakeholders
