The individual will work cross-functionally with Commercial, Medical, Regulatory, IP, Market Access, Business Development, Finance, and other internal teams, integrating their input into a single Portfolio view of each opportunity and a clear recommendation the business can act on.

• Escalates: matters with material financial, legal, IP, or reputational impact, and cross-functional disagreements that cannot be resolved at working level.

Key Responsibilities
