  • Manage end-to-end reference and article lifecycle, including procurement, tracking, deduplication, version control, and library organization within enterprise systems (e.g., EndNote/Distiller).
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Scientific Communications, Regulatory Affairs, Clinical, and global Medical Affairs teams to deliver high-quality, evidence-based support.
  • Develop concise evidence summaries and respond to complex information requests, enabling consistent, accurate use of data across internal and regulatory materials.
  • Drive process improvements and knowledge management, enhancing efficiency, scalability, and internal ownership of literature and evidence activities currently supported by external vendors.


What makes you successful:
  • Proven experience conducting structured literature searches using biomedical databases such as PubMed/MEDLINE and Embase
  • Background supporting systematic literature reviews, regulatory submissions, or clinical evaluations within pharmaceutical, medical device, or clinical environments
  • Proficiency with reference management tools and article tracking systems to maintain organized, accurate evidence libraries
  • Strong ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional and global teams across Medical Affairs, Regulatory, and Clinical functions
  • Exceptional attention to detail with the ability to manage complex data sets and ensure accuracy, traceability, and consistency
  • Solid organizational and time management skills to handle multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
