- Develop and execute a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) engagement plan within Switzerland.
- Deliver scientific presentations to internal and external audiences and provide support at medical congresses and professional meetings.
- Engage with healthcare providers, researchers, and patient advocates to understand and address their scientific and clinical needs.
- Capture and share external insights on disease states, Ascendis’ pipeline, and competitors with internal stakeholders.
Qualifications and Skills
- Advanced degree (MD, PharmD, PhD) in a relevant scientific field.
- At least 5 years’ experience in medical affairs within the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry, including field experience.
- Preferred experience in endocrinology, pediatric endocrinology, or rare diseases.
- Fluent in German (both written and spoken); proficiency in French and/or Italian is a plus. Strong English language skills.
Key Competencies
You have strong communication skills backed by scientific acumen, enabling you to convey complex information effectively. Your decisions have a significant impact on the credibility, operations, and service quality of the department. You excel at building relationships and collaborating with diverse individuals to drive results. Independent yet team-oriented, you thrive in a fast-paced environment and can prioritize your tasks with ease. Your passion for patient care shines through in your interactions with healthcare providers and researchers. Additionally, you are skilled in preparing and delivering presentations for a variety of audiences.
If you are passionate about rare diseases and eager to make a difference with Ascendis Pharma, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. Join us in advancing therapeutic innovations to improve patient lives worldwide.
