You'll have genuine influence over medical strategy, stakeholder engagement and medical education initiatives that support some of the most recognised brands in aesthetics.

If you're passionate about scientific exchange, physician education and building trusted relationships with healthcare professionals, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in one of the most dynamic areas of healthcare.

  • Provide balanced, accurate, and credible medical information to support evidence-based clinical decision-making.
  • Lead the development, planning, and delivery of medical education initiatives, speaker programs, advisory activities, scientific meetings, and other external engagements in accordance with applicable policies and local requirements.
  • Set the scientific direction and medical content for educational activities, ensuring that materials and presentations are medically accurate, balanced, evidence-based, and compliant.

  • Develop and execute strategic KOL engagement plans that support the Medical Affairs strategy and strengthen long-term, trust-based relationships.
  • Lead stakeholder and territory planning across ANZ, including the identification of priority stakeholders, engagement opportunities, unmet medical needs, and opportunities to advance medical understanding.
  • Lead local, regional, and national scientific activities with key stakeholders, including the development of objectives, agendas, engagement plans, and measures of success.
  • Identify emerging leaders with relevant specialty interests, and lead appropriate educational initiatives to foster long-term relationships and support the future development of the therapeutic area.
  • Maintain effective relationships with physicians, administrators, and representatives of relevant specialty societies.
  • Interpret and communicate stakeholder feedback, clinical practice insights, and outcomes from external engagements to inform Medical Affairs strategy and planning.
  • Manage a predominantly customer-facing role, with approximately 65% of time dedicated to interaction with KOLs, healthcare professionals, and other external stakeholders. Travel throughout ANZ is expected as required.
  • Keep current on scientific, clinical, and market developments in ANZ, the broader Asia-Pacific region, and globally.
  • Attend key medical congresses and scientific forums locally to strengthen medical knowledge and external relationships.
  • Gather and communicate external insights, competitor intelligence, and scientific observations to inform Medical Affairs strategy and planning.
  • Contribute to the scientific development of promotional and educational materials by providing accurate and balanced medical advice, where appropriate and compliant.
  • Report any adverse event within 24 hours as per Allergan’s policies and procedures.
  • Proactively participate in AbbVie’s WHS programs, adhere to policies and promote a safe work environment at all times.
