Broad Overview

The Head of Marketing for Cardiology will lead the development and execution of the brand strategy, creative vision, tactical plans, and performance measurement for the launch of Bentracimab. This groundbreaking therapy is a potential first-in-class reversal agent for the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor, a P2Y12 inhibitor commonly prescribed to reduce the risk of clots, strokes, or myocardial infarction (MI). While ticagrelor is effective, it poses a bleeding risk for patients requiring urgent surgery or those experiencing traumatic injuries. Bentracimab addresses this challenge by reversing ticagrelor's antiplatelet activity within 5-10 minutes, quickly restoring hemostasis and improving patient outcomes.

As Head Of Marketing, Cardiology, Your Responsibilities Will Include

• Develop and Execute Brand Strategy: Lead the creation and implementation of a cohesive brand strategy for Bentracimab, ensuring alignment with corporate goals and market needs.
• Design Comprehensive Campaigns: Plan and execute integrated campaigns that balance personal promotion (e.g., field sales enablement) with non-personal promotion tactics such as digital, mobile, and innovative media channels.

• Deliver Tactical Excellence: Drive the execution of tactical plans grounded in effective customer segmentation, competitive intelligence, and actionable market insights.
• Prepare for Competitive Dynamics: Anticipate market competition and develop strategies to differentiate Bentracimab while enhancing brand positioning.
• Lead Team Management: Guide and mentor a high-performing team, fostering collaboration, accountability, and a results-oriented culture.
• Drive Hospital Sales Success: Partner with hospital sales teams to develop targeted strategies and resources that drive adoption and engagement within key accounts.
