Field Medical Director - Pathologist

$186.83k - $280.25k

Jobleads-US

Are you a US-board certified anatomic pathologist ready to shape how breast cancer diagnostics are adopted and applied across the Midwest? Do you want to turn biomarker insights into real-world practice that improves treatment decisions for patients?

As Field Medical Director, Pathologist (Breast) for the Mid-West US, you will lead external engagement with pathologists and professional societies, translate evidence into practice-focused education, and surface insights that sharpen our medical strategy. Your work will influence testing quality and consistency, reduce barriers to biomarker adoption, and help ensure the right patients receive the right therapy at the right time.

You will operate at the interface of science and strategy—partnering with colleagues across Medical and Commercial functions to align tactics with the oncology pipeline and US Medical objectives. This is a field-based role with regional scope. Your impact will be measured in how pathologists learn, collaborate, and implement diagnostic standards that elevate patient care.

Accountabilities

  • External Pathologist Engagement: Build, own, and advance relationships with regional and national experts in breast pathology to inform practice and amplify evidence-based diagnostics.

  • Diagnostics Education: Recommend, develop, and deliver targeted, diagnostics-focused educational content for HCPs—primarily pathologists to drive high-quality, appropriate biomarker testing.

  • Medical Insights Generation: Run advisory boards, workshops, and peer-to-peer forums to capture pathology-driven insights that directly shape US Medical Diagnostics plans.

  • Cross-Functional Planning: Collaborate with internal partners to align and execute integrated medical tactical and strategic plans in support of the breast oncology pipeline, ensuring clear links to patient outcomes.

  • Biomarker Adoption Leadership: Identify barriers to testing and lead solution-oriented initiatives that improve access, implementation, and utilization across clinical laboratories and care sites.

  • Society Participation and Thought Leadership: Participate in education programs with Regional and National Pathology societies to broaden reach and accelerate best-practice dissemination.

  • Scientific and Competitive Expertise: Maintain deep, current knowledge of diagnostics, biomarkers, and the competitive landscape to guide credible, compliant scientific exchange.

  • Compliance and Governance: Adhere to all regulatory and compliance requirements while modeling high scientific and ethical standards across engagements.

  • Regional Impact and Metrics: Prioritize high-value opportunities within the Mid-West US, track outcomes, and continuously refine plans to maximize clinical and business impact.

Essential Skills/Experience

  • Advanced medical degree (MD), US-board certified anatomic pathologist

  • Existing relationships with Pathology National and Regional Professional Societies

  • Strong business acumen, including an understanding of drivers behind the evolving US diagnostic and pathology landscape

  • Deep understanding of diagnostic FDA environment, clinical laboratory practices including CAP/CLIA lab requirements and test implementation

  • Ability to interact productively with commercial and medical colleagues

  • Experience in developing and maintaining new relationships with key external experts in pathology

  • Ability to travel up to 30% of time

Desirable Skills/Experience

  • Experience in industry or research institution with emphasis in pathology and/or diagnostics

  • Strong knowledge of medical strategy, clinical diagnostic development, and Field Medical activities

  • Experience in a strategy-setting role within Medical Affairs

  • Demonstrated leadership abilities within a matrixed organization

  • Knowledge and/or expertise in breast therapeutic area
