If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, possess exceptional attention to detail, and love turning raw ideas into polished, high-impact commercial assets, this is the perfect stage for your career growth.

Key Responsibilities:
- In-House Creative Execution: Take full ownership of creating, polishing, and formatting critical marketing collateral, presentations, and documents (specifically using PowerPoint and Word). By bringing these tasks in-house, you will eliminate agency delays, drive cost savings, and keep our delivery fast and sleek.
- Brand Strategy & Activation: Support Brand Leads in implementing annual brand plans and tactical campaigns across the full marketing mix to achieve market share, growth, and sales targets.
- New Product Introductions (NPI): Lead assigned NPI projects from initial concept through to flawless market execution.
- Cross-Functional Project Management: Serve as the operational glue between Marketing, Field Sales, Medical, Regulatory, and Supply teams. You will hold stakeholders and senior leadership accountable to project timelines to ensure flawless execution.
- Market Insights & Analytics: Monitor market performance, track commercial trends, and analyze data to spot future growth opportunities, mitigate risks, and inform future strategies.
- Budget & Administration: Assist with Advertising & Promotion (A&P) budget management and maintain smooth administrative operations in alignment with company policies.
