A degree in life sciences, pharmacy, nursing or another relevant field is preferred. Examination from LIF education or similar. Experience and an established network within dermatology or immunology would be considered an advantage.
Additional Information
You will become part of an experienced, ambitious and supportive team with a shared commitment to improving outcomes for patients. You will work closely with colleagues across Sales, Marketing, Medical, Market Access and Strategic Initiatives, giving you the opportunity to influence both the regional business and our broader dermatology strategy.

How we calculate "similar"
No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.
Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.
0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
