  • Support data interpretation, publications, and investor communications
  • Collaborate closely with Translational, Regulatory, Biometrics, and Commercial teams


Ideal Profile

  • MD or MD/PhD with significant industry experience in clinical development
  • Strong track record in cardiometabolic diseases (e.g., obesity, heart failure, T2D, MASH)
  • Experience leading global clinical trials, ideally through late-stage development
  • Proven success in regulatory interactions (FDA/EMA)
  • Ability to operate in a fast-paced, high-growth biotech environment
  • Strong communication skills with experience engaging KOLs and senior stakeholders


Why This Role?
