Key Responsibilities
1. Oncology Strategy and Planning Own the development, prioritization, and execution of the Korea Oncology medical strategy and integrated medical plan, aligned with Global/Regional strategy and the local landscape. Set and shape the Korea scientific narrative for priority Oncology assets — delivering early scientific differentiation, practice-shaping evidence generation, and relevant education with clarity, conviction, and differentiation. Represent Medical in Oncology brand teams and cross-functional leadership forums; co-drive the therapeutic area with commercial counterparts as one team. Plan and manage the Oncology medical budget and activity calendar with disciplined financial stewardship; relentlessly prioritize investments where they drive the greatest patient and enterprise impact. Contribute to the medical/scientific sections of pricing and reimbursement files (HIRA/NHIS) and collaborate with HEOR/Market Access on HTA strategy. Act as medical reviewer/signatory for promotional and non-promotional materials per local SOPs, ensuring claims are accurate, fair, and balanced. 2. External Engagement and Customer Focus Own the truth of the external environment: define the treatment landscape and market realities, anticipate where the field is going, and identify the unmet needs that must be addressed — anchoring BMS to external reality and the external world to our science. Develop, maintain, and deepen trusted peer-to-peer relationships with National Thought Leaders, HCPs, patient advocacy groups (PAGs), medical societies, and payer stakeholders across the Korean oncology community. Engage with TLs/HCPs through multiple channels (e.g., 1:1 meetings, group presentations, virtual/remote interactions), serving as the senior scientific counterpart for top-tier national TLs. Continuously profile and assess the medical landscape within oncology, maintaining up-to-date knowledge of treatment strategies, clinical trial activities, unmet medical needs, competitive landscape, and scientific developments. Support acceleration of pipeline impact and launch readiness through a concentrated congress and data strategy and high-impact, practice-relevant scientific exchange — including leading Korea Medical deliverables for key medical projects and ONO alliance activities. Provide scientific support at medical meetings, including presenting unbiased data, evaluating speakers, and supporting BMS-contracted speakers. Leverage digital tools and capabilities — including AI — to enhance the quality, reach, and efficiency of medical engagement. 3. Field Medical Leadership and Coaching Provide field medical leadership to Oncology MSLs (dotted line): set territory and TL engagement priorities aligned to the medical plan, and drive field excellence. Coach and develop MSLs against the Competency Framework through regular co-visits, field coaching and structured feedback. Evaluate and coach MSLs on the Scientific Engagement Model competencies; foster a culture of psychological safety, accountability, and
