Regional Field Leader, Rare Disease | West
An emerging biotechnology company is building its commercial organization ahead of the launch of a first-in-class rare disease therapy and is seeking an experienced Regional Field Leader to build and lead its West region.
This is a highly visible opportunity to join a small, entrepreneurial biotech at a pivotal stage of growth, helping shape the field organization, commercial strategy and launch execution from the ground up.
The Regional Field Leader will recruit, develop and lead a team of approximately 5-10 field representatives, with responsibility for establishing a high-performance culture and delivering against regional launch objectives. This is not a traditional management role. The successful individual will combine strategic leadership with hands-on field execution, working closely alongside their team and remaining directly connected to customers and market dynamics.
The West region will have a strong community-focused model, requiring a leader who understands how to drive adoption across a distributed customer base, identify high-value accounts and translate national strategy into effective territory-level execution.
Key responsibilities include:
- Build, hire and develop a new team of 5-10 field representatives
- Lead regional execution for the launch of a first-in-class rare disease therapy
- Establish territory strategy, customer prioritization and performance expectations
- Coach actively in the field and develop a high-accountability, high-performance culture
- Partner cross-functionally with Market Access, Marketing, Medical and Patient Services
- Translate evolving market insights into clear tactical action
We are looking for an entrepreneurial commercial leader with rare disease, specialty or complex launch experience, a strong record of building and leading high-performing teams, and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving biotech environment.
