Brand Leadership Team - Marketing Lead

• Serve as a key strategic partner across Medical Affairs, Market Access, Insights & Analytics, Market Development, Customer Experience, and Consumer/HCP Marketing to ensure the bipolar strategy is fully integrated into the broader Neuroscience commercial plans
