• Support clinical activities including post-marketing trials and investigator-initiated studies
• Mentor and lead the Italian Medical team (2 MSLs)

Your profile:

• Scientific background required; MD strongly preferred (especially with oncology/radiation oncology specialization)
• 3 years’ experience in oncology (clinical, pharma, or medical devices)
• Strong knowledge of Italian oncology networks and dynamics
• Proven ability to lead or support teams (line management experience a plus)
• Fluent in Italian and English
