## Job description

### Why AstraZeneca

AstraZeneca is a global, science-led, patient-focused biopharmaceutical company with a bold ambition: to eliminate cancer as a cause of death.

This role will be responsible for leading the cross-functional team, building strong relationships with key stakeholders, and delivering measurable results in one of oncology's most dynamic and competitive markets.

This role reports to the Head of Marketing, Lung, and is based at our Gaithersburg, MD campus, headquarters of the Oncology Business Unit.

### Bring in innovation
