  • Lead client engagements, including strategy sessions, kick-off meetings, program updates and post-program debriefs.
  • Oversee the full program lifecycle, from initial sales demonstrations and proposal development through execution, reporting and client feedback.
  • Partner closely with medical writers and cross-functional teams to develop scientific content, program materials, agendas and strategic insights.

  • Strong understanding of pharmaceutical marketing, scientific communications and healthcare audiences.
  • Experience leading complex client relationships and managing multiple programs simultaneously.
