We are looking for a Key Account Partner to join our Oncology team. In this role, you will be responsible for generating clinical demand for AstraZeneca's Oncology brands within key accounts, identifying business opportunities, and building strategic, long-term partnerships across the healthcare ecosystem. You will work closely with multidisciplinary stakeholders to understand local needs, shape account strategies, and deliver solutions that improve quality of care and support appropriate patient access to treatment.

You should also be able to demonstrate the ability to understand, assimilate, and communicate scientific information and health economic outcomes data, as well as experience working successfully across cross-functional teams. The ideal candidate will bring strong business acumen, learning agility, decision-making and problem-solving capability, a customer solution-oriented mindset, and confidence in navigating complex decision-making environments.
