Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering if you already have strong HIV/ID clinical depth or prior pharma Medical Affairs exposure, as this is a credible long-term non-clinical pathway. Clinicians without specialist HIV experience or industry exposure will find it a stretch given the likely experience bar.

Who should apply

HIV/infectious diseases physicians and specialist registrars, clinical pharmacists with HIV or antiretroviral stewardship experience, and clinicians with prior MSL or Medical Affairs experience seeking a sponsor-side medical role.

CV angle

Lead with HIV/antiretroviral clinical management volume and complexity, guideline implementation, audit/QI, teaching and peer education, and any publication or scientific presentation work. Frame cross-functional collaboration, compliance awareness, and literature/data appraisal as transferable Medical Affairs capabilities rather than as generic clinical duties.

Skills to highlight

  • HIV and antiretroviral therapy clinical expertise
  • Scientific communication and medical education
  • KOL and external expert engagement
  • Critical appraisal of clinical literature and data
  • Cross-functional collaboration
  • Regulatory and compliance awareness
  • Guideline implementation and quality improvement
