Support investigator-initiated study (IIS/IST) discussions and facilitate the proposal process.

Clinical Trial Support

Partner with Site Management & Monitoring teams to optimize clinical trial initiation and execution.
Assist in site selection by identifying qualified investigators and institutions.
Provide disease-state and study-specific training to clinical site personnel.
Facilitate communication between investigators, company teams, and clinical operations.
Monitor and report field intelligence on competitor research and evolving treatment landscapes.

Scientific Strategy & Insights

Identify and profile Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) and community-based investigators.
Gather and share scientific insights from the field to inform medical strategy and development plans.
Maintain a current understanding of disease mechanisms, emerging therapies, and market dynamics.
Support clinical and marketing teams by serving as a scientific subject matter expert (SME).

Compliance & Professional Conduct

Ensure all activities comply with regulatory, legal, and ethical standards, as well as company policies.
Submit adverse event reports and complete required compliance training on schedule.
Act as an IQVIA ambassador, upholding integrity and professionalism in all external interactions.

Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

Experience in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or healthcare industry (Oncology preferred).
Advanced knowledge of clinical trial processes, medical terminology, and research ethics.
Strong presentation, interpersonal, and communication skills.
Proven ability to build and sustain professional relationships with medical experts.
Excellent project management and territory management capabilities.
Proficiency with CRM systems and digital reporting tools.
Willingness to travel extensively across the designated region.

Qualifications

Advanced scientific or medical degree preferred (MD, PharmD, PhD, NP, or equivalent).
Prior experience as a Medical Science Liaison or similar field-based medical role highly desirable.
Solid understanding of Oncology therapeutic areas and clinical research principles.

Compensation & Benefits

Base Pay Range: $200,000 – $265,000 (annualized)

May include incentive plans, performance bonuses, and a full range of health and welfare benefits.
