ABOUT THE ROLE:

We’re looking for an Associate Director, Patient & Professional Advocacy, Market Development to help us expand what’s possible for patients with serious diseases.

• Collaborate and serve as functional expert on cross functional Global Program Teams, partnering with Clinical Development, Core Medical Affairs, Regulatory, Corporate Communications, Human Resources, Legal, and Compliance to ensure that Insmed’s core values and corporate brand are represented in internal and external initiatives.
• Foster a collaborative and supportive team culture to achieve patient-centric goals.
