- Lead the development of therapy area and/or brand scientific strategy (in collaboration with the Scientific Strategy Team where appropriate)

You are an established scientific and creative leader, with extensive heritage in medical communications and advertising, and demonstrated ability at leveraging scientific knowledge into creative execution. You have shown innovation in problem solving, and aptitude at mastering knowledge of therapeutic areas, being the scientific steward of brands and leading scientific discourse. You can confidently produce strategically aligned, compelling scientific narratives, lead a team to deliver the same, and support the creative team to leverage scientific insights into award winning creative.
