• Guide teams in identifying priority dermatology practices, HS centers, referral networks, and local market dynamics.
• Use CRM, call activity, access trends, and performance data to diagnose opportu-nities and improve execution.
• Partner with Field Reimbursement, Medical Affairs, and local cross-functional colleagues.
• Build a performance culture with frequent feedback, transparent expectations, and differentiated development plans.
• Lead district business reviews and communicate customer, competitor, referral, and access insights upward.
• Ensure adherence to all company policies, approved promotional materials, and applicable laws and regulations.

Education:

• Bachelor's degree required.

Experience:

• 8+ years of pharmaceutical/biotechnology commercial experience, including 3+ years of successful sales leadership.

Skills/knowledge/behavioural competencies:

• Specialty-market experience required; dermatology, immunology, biologic, or HS experience preferred.
