Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering for advanced-degree clinicians with oncology expertise who want a scientific, field-based pharma career and live in or near the territory. It is not an entry-level non-clinical transition and may be competitive without prior MSL, research, or strong scientific communication experience.
Who should apply
Oncology-trained physicians, PharmDs, PhDs, NPs/PAs, and experienced nurses with strong lung cancer/solid tumor knowledge; clinicians with prior research, KOL engagement, medical education, or pharma-facing scientific communication experience; candidates based in Southern California or Las Vegas.
CV angle
Frame real oncology clinical experience as scientific exchange and HCP education, highlighting disease-state expertise, research support, investigator/site interactions, presentations, cross-functional collaboration, and compliant external expert engagement. Emphasize any experience with KOLs, advisory boards, clinical trials, publications, or medical education without overstating pharma experience.
Skills to highlight
- Oncology/lung solid tumor disease-state expertise
- Scientific communication and presentation skills
- External expert/KOL engagement
- Clinical research and investigator support
- Territory planning and field medical execution
- Cross-functional collaboration
- Compliance and CRM documentation
- HCP education and advisory board support
Role summary
A field-based Medical Science Liaison role in AbbVie oncology focused on lung solid tumor. The MSL serves as a scientific expert for HCPs and researchers, develops external expert relationships, supports clinical development and research initiatives, communicates field insights internally, and executes territory plans across Southern California and Las Vegas.
