About the Role

What You'll Do

In this role, you will serve as a trusted resource for healthcare providers, delivering accurate, on-label information about neuroscience therapies and their approved uses. You'll connect with providers through in-person visits, virtual meetings, and digital platforms, ensuring they have access to up-to-date clinical data and patient care guidance.

You'll organize and lead educational events and speaker programs, fostering dialogue among provider groups to exchange real-world experiences and treatment outcomes. When customer needs extend beyond your scope, you’ll direct them to appropriate internal partners, such as Customer Service Specialists, to ensure timely resolution.

Insights gathered from provider interactions will be shared with leadership to shape local market strategies and improve engagement approaches. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to refine outreach plans and ensure alignment with evolving business goals.
