  • Plan and deliver congress activities by supporting scientific booth content, symposia, educational materials, and insight‑gathering initiatives.
  • Collaborate across functions to align priorities, timelines, and deliverables with global, regional, and local stakeholders.
  • Conduct medical content reviews by partnering with Legal and Regulatory colleagues to support accurate, balanced, and compliant communications.
  • Coordinate content development processes by preparing source materials, supporting content reuse, and identifying future content needs.
  • Apply digital and AI‑enabled technologies to enhance planning, content development, visualization, review processes, and stakeholder engagement.
  • Manage execution and continuous improvement by monitoring key performance measures, managing vendors and timelines, identifying risks, and incorporating stakeholder insights into planning.
Qualifications
