### Why us?

In Women’s Health, you will lead and grow an established, successful Medical organization, further increasing scientific impact, quality of execution, and cross-functional influence in a category where the company already holds a leading market position.

This role is for a hands-on builder who wants to create visible, lasting impact — not just manage existing structures.

### Why This Role Is Special

- You will build a Neurology/CNS franchise, not inherit one
- You will leave a personal footprint in a new therapy area
- You will shape strategy and execute it yourself
- You will lead in a company that is already a leader in Women’s Health and help take it to the next level
