The opportunity

Reimagine the infrastructure of cancer care within a community that values integrity, inspires growth, and is uniquely positioned to create a more modern, connected oncology ecosystem. We’re looking for a Medical Director to help us accomplish our mission to improve and extend…

What you'll do

  • Clinical Oncology & Precision Medicine Expert: Serve as a core medical expert unblocking high-volume, custom data requests across oncologic diseases including rare tumor types and complex, multi-omic biomarker profiles. Flexibly pivot across oncologic disease areas to scope, design, and clinically validate custom datasets and analyses for our biopharma partners.

  • Translational Oncology & Discovery Partner: Partner with clients early in their R&D lifecycle to show how clinical-molecular datasets can fuel target discovery, characterize novel biomarker-defined cohorts, evaluate tumor biology, and guide combination therapy approaches. Help researchers validate preclinical hypotheses in real-world cohorts and explore clinical trial findings via reverse translation.

  • Clinical Development Translation: Apply clinical development and trial design principles to help biopharma clients bridge the gap between traditional clinical endpoints and real-world evidence (RWE). Help clients understand how real world data can support external control arms, historic cohorts, or synthetic control designs for niche or rare trial populations.

  • Commercial Pre-Sales & Scoping Subject Matter Expert: Proactively provide clinical and molecular data expertise to support teams during pre-sales, client scoping, and solution building utilising internal or off-the-shelf external AI tools. Partner with scientific and commercial leaders to translate a client’s clinical development planning, target validation, or complex inclusion/exclusion criteria into precise data specifications across our various data assets.

  • Cross-Functional Solutioning: Partner closely with matrixed project teams to apply established clinical-molecular frameworks to complex dataset deliveries and custom client requests.

  • Internal Capability Building: Support the development of internal training resources and clinical documentation to help upskill delivery teams on rare biomarker cohorts and molecular data structures.

What they're looking for

  • Medical Training: You hold an MD (or equivalent) with foundational training in oncology, hematology, or a related subspecialty.
  • Experience: You have post-training clinical, academic, or early industry: experience. Qualifying years of experience are following completion of a subspecialty fellowship.
  • years for the Associate Medical Director level
  • + years for the Medical Director level
  • Clinical Development & Discovery Exposure: You have familiarity with clinical trial design, protocol development, or early-phase (Phase I/II) clinical development. Exposure to laboratory translational oncology, cancer genomics, or biomarker discovery research is highly valued.
  • Clinical Agility: You possess deep clinical intuition and are highly comfortable learning and diving into the clinical landscape of diverse, low-incidence rare tumors and complex molecular landscapes.
  • Matrix Collaboration: You are adept at working within a matrix-structured environment with multiple stakeholders and product lines, translating highly technical medical and genomic concepts for non-clinical internal teams.
  • Operational Execution: You are able to handle multiple tasks concurrently, contribute to intermediate-complexity clinical data projects with guidance and mentorship from senior leaders, and meet ongoing deadlines in a fast-paced technology driven environment.
