Medical Director - Heart Failure - US Central / West

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About Us? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. The posting includes "About Us", "Job Purpose", "Job Responsibilities", "Education", "Required Experience and Capabilities", "Additional Preferred Experience", "Success Profile", "Competencies", "Flexibility", "Additional Information". We need to map these to appropriate headings: "About the role" maybe corresponds to "Job Purpose". "Responsibilities" corresponds to "Job Responsibilities". "Requirements" maybe "Education" and "Required Experience and Capabilities". "Qualifications" maybe "Additional Preferred Experience". "Skills" maybe "Competencies". "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule" only if present. There's mention of "Travelling – approximately 65% of the time" which could be schedule? Not exactly schedule but travel requirement. Could be considered schedule? Probably not. No explicit pay or benefits. So we should not create those sections. We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate (EEO etc). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to output only HTML fragment. We need to decide headings: Use

for each section we include. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to parse content. Let's extract sections: - About Us: description of company. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is company overview. Could be placed under a heading like "About the company"? Not in list but we can still use

  About Us? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive. Probably we should use those standard headings where applicable. For company overview, maybe "About the role" is not appropriate. Could use "About Us" as heading but not in examples. Safer to follow examples: we could treat "About Us" as "About the role"? Might be okay. But the instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are typical headings; we can still use others if needed but better to stick to those. However "About Us" is substantive; we could put it under

  About the role

  but that would be misleading. Maybe we can omit About Us? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it. Could use

  About Us

  even if not in examples; it's still a heading. The instruction didn't forbid other headings, just gave examples. So we can use

  About Us

  . Similarly "Job Purpose" could be

  Job Purpose

  or map to "About the role". I'd use

  Job Purpose

  . "Job Responsibilities" ->

  Responsibilities

  . "Education" ->

  Education

  maybe under Requirements? But we can keep. "Required Experience and Capabilities" ->

  Requirements

  . "Additional Preferred Experience" ->

  Qualifications

  . "Success Profile" -> maybe

  Skills

  or

  Success Profile

  . Could map to Skills. "Competencies" ->

  Skills

  as well? Might duplicate. Better to keep Competencies as

  Competencies

  but not in examples. Could still use. "Flexibility" -> maybe not needed as separate; could be part of Additional Information. "Additional Information" -> includes travel, budgetary responsibilities, confidentiality, link to website. Could be

  Additional Information

  . We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. So remove the equal opportunity paragraph at end. Also remove duplicated lines? Not seeing duplicates. We need to preserve all substantive info: include travel 65%, budgetary responsibilities, confidential data, link to website. We need to format lists where appropriate. Let's extract content for each section. About Us: "We are a global, family-owned company driven by a passion for innovation.

Job Purpose: "This role offers the opportunity to help shape Pharmacosmos’ future presence in heart failure while supporting one of the company’s most important clinical development programs. The role sits at the interface of Clinical Development and Medical Affairs and has two complementary objectives Support successful execution and patient recruitment of the ICONIC-HF trial in the United States through investigator engagement, site support, insight generation, and identification of barriers to study execution. Build the scientific, stakeholder, and market foundation for future IV iron adoption in heart failure, including KOL engagement, strategic insight generation, advocacy development, launch readiness, and future medical-marketing support. The relative emphasis of the role is expected to evolve over time. During active execution of ICONIC-HF, the primary focus will be investigator engagement, site support, and insight generation related to trial execution. As the program matures, the center of gravity is expected to shift progressively toward heart failure market understanding, advocacy development, launch readiness, and broader medical affairs support for the future heart failure franchise. The successful candidate will work closely with both the US affiliate and global headquarters in Denmark and will have regular interaction with cross-functional leadership teams across Clinical Development, Medical Affairs, Strategy and Operations, and Market Access. The role is intended for an individual who enjoys combining scientific engagement, strategic thinking, and execution in a highly collaborative global environment." We need to keep. Responsibilities: The responsibilities are structured in two complementary pillars Boundaries of the Role Trial Support ICONIC-HF Site Engagement and Enablement ... then a long list. Then "Strategic Heart Failure Insights, Advocacy Development and Launch Readiness" ... then "Policies, Procedures & Compliance". We need to capture all. We should maybe split responsibilities into two sub-sections? But we can keep as one Responsibilities section with paragraphs and lists. We need to convert list items where appropriate. The responsibilities contain many sentences that could be list items. For clarity, we can create
  • for each bullet-like sentence. Let's extract bullet points under Trial Support: - Establish and maintain strong scientific relationships with investigators, study coordinators, and other site personnel involved in ICONIC-HF. - Conduct regular site engagements, virtually and in person where relevant, to understand local opportunities, challenges, operational barriers and operate within compliance, GCP, and trial governance frameworks. - Serve as a US-based scientific liaison between participating sites and the HQ R&D ICONIC-HF trial team in coordination with the US affiliate and the contracted CRO. - Identify, understand, and communicate barriers that may impact screening, enrollment, site engagement, or study execution, analyze potential root causes, and help defining mitigations activities with HQ R&D ICONIC-HF trial team and the CRO. - Facilitate appropriate cross-functional problem solving and escalation pathways when barriers are identified. - Support protocol understanding and scientific discussions within approved governance frameworks. - Gather and communicate investigator insights, competitive intelligence, protocol feedback, and study-related observations to internal stakeholders. - Organize and facilitate regional sponsor-investigator touchpoint meetings as appropriate. - Identify and share best practices from successful sites to support broader site engagement efforts, where appropriate and compliant. - Support site activation and engagement initiatives in partnership with HQ R&D ICONIC-HF trial team and the CRO. - Maintain a strong understanding of site experiences and investigator perspectives throughout the study lifecycle. - Does not function as a CRA. - Does not perform monitoring activities. - Does not conduct source data verification. - Does not own enrollment metrics or site performance targets. - Does not manage day-to-day clinical trial operations. These responsibilities remain with HQ Clinical Operations and the CRO. Then Strategic Heart Failure Insights, Advocacy Development and Launch Readiness: - Develop a deep understanding of the evolving US heart failure landscape, including treatment pathways, referral patterns, unmet needs, evidence gaps, barriers to adoption, and emerging trends relevant to IV iron. - Map, prioritize, and engage regional and national heart failure thought leaders. - Build and maintain scientific relationships with key experts beyond the ICONIC-HF investigator network. - Generate actionable insights that can support future evidence generation, publication planning, congress activities, scientific communication, advisory board strategy, and launch readiness. - Partner closely with HQ and the US affiliate to ensure field insights are translated into strategic recommendations. - Support identification and prioritization of investigator-sponsored research opportunities. - Contribute to long-term medical affairs strategy and launch-readiness planning for IV iron in heart failure. - Support future launch-readiness initiatives through close partnership with Medical Affairs, Strategy and Operations, Market Access, and Commercial colleagues while maintaining full compliance with applicable governance requirements.
