Why this is worth applying to
Worth applying only if you are a senior physician with medical affairs or pharma leadership experience and strong Andean market or therapeutic-area knowledge. Early-career clinicians should instead build evidence-generation, KOL, governance, and publication experience before targeting this level.
Who should apply
Senior physicians with medical affairs, clinical research, RWE/HEOR, KOL engagement, compliance, and therapeutic-area leadership experience, especially those familiar with Andean markets and cardiometabolic, respiratory, vaccines, immunology, or rare disease portfolios.
CV angle
Frame clinical expertise as therapeutic-area scientific authority and quantify medical strategy, evidence-generation, KOL/advisory board, publication, compliance, and cross-functional leadership impact. Avoid claiming pharma experience if absent; highlight transferable research, guideline, governance, and medical education work instead.

- Evidence generation and RWE/HEOR
