Diagnostic Scientific Liaison

Overview

AstraZeneca is a global, innovation-driven BioPharmaceutical business that focuses on the discovery, development and commercialization of prescription medicines for some of the world’s most serious disease. But we’re more than one of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies.

A place where the patient journey is considered holistically, beyond developing medicines. Backed by the science at every step, powered to make a difference. We work together as a team of highly skilled professionals to get the best results for diagnosis and treatment that will have the potential to transform the lives of those with unmet needs.

At AstraZeneca we fuse the worlds of Medical and Commercial to spot opportunities and pioneer approaches that better serve our patients. Bridging Commercial and Scientific goals, we apply our people and leadership skills to launch cutting-edge products into our growing healthcare ecosystem.

It takes a holistic mindset to treat each unique patient and tailor the whole experience – from early diagnosis to treatment. With a strong foundation of science and ethics, we run fast but never compromise on doing the right thing. Working at pace in our ever-changing, ambiguous markets takes creativity and imagination. We always feel supported to do this, learning from our failures and working as a team to win together. Curious problem-solvers, it takes more than big dreams to make an impact here. We step up and take accountability to deliver new ways of doing things that will create a better future for our markets.
