You are comfortable working independently while managing priorities effectively in a global setting. You build strong, trust‑based relationships across functions and geographies, collaborating closely with internal stakeholders and external partners, including agencies, and you actively contribute to capability building by mentoring junior colleagues. You bring a solid understanding of good promotional practices, compliance requirements and LMR governance, ensuring high‑quality, compliant global outputs. With a global and cross‑cultural mindset, you balance global consistency with local market needs, influence through expertise rather than authority, keep patient and caregiver needs at the center of your work, and are open to occasional international travel as part of the role.
