Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.
Why this is worth applying to
Only worth pursuing if you already have a strong life-sciences consulting or Medical Affairs leadership record and can credibly source a multi-million-dollar book of business. Most clinicians without that background should treat it as a long-term transition target rather than an immediate application.
Who should apply
Physicians or pharmacists with prior management consulting, Medical Affairs leadership, and proven business development experience; former industry Medical Affairs leaders with strong client networks and advisory sales experience.
CV angle
Frame clinical and medical experience as Medical Affairs domain expertise: evidence generation, KOL/field medical strategy, cross-functional leadership, and measurable program outcomes. Add consulting-style language around client advisory, revenue/business development, team leadership, and delivery of strategy engagements, but do not invent sales or consulting experience.
Skills to highlight
- Medical Affairs strategy
- Management consulting
- Business development and revenue ownership
- Client relationship management
- Cross-functional team leadership
- Medical planning and insights management
- Integrated evidence strategy
- Contract negotiation
