POSITION SUMMARY The Area Medical Director (AMD) is a senior physician leader embedded within a defined geography (Northeast, East, Central, or West) to serve as Natera's primary MD-to-MD clinical presence across the community oncology market.
This role addresses the intersection of medical affairs, field execution, and scientific credibility — driving engagement with community oncologists, KOLs, and cross-functional field teams to accelerate appropriate utilization of Natera's oncology portfolio, including Signatera and Altera.
The AMD owns regional medical strategy, leads cross-functional field partnerships, and operates with high autonomy to define and execute area priorities.
The AMD functions without a defined playbook, translates business strategy into field-level action, and surfaces clinical intelligence that informs both commercial execution and development priorities.
This is a 50% field-based role.
● Establish and maintain contact with the medical lead in the top 20 area accounts; engage 100% of flagged accounts within 10 business days.
Cross-Functional Medical Leadership ● Serve as the primary MD triage point for escalated area medical inquiries, acknowledging at least 90% within 48 hours with 100% closed-loop documentation in Salesforce.
● Partner with MSL managers, Area Sales Directors, and Area Marketing Directors through structured bi-weekly and monthly cadences to align scientific messaging and commercial strategy.
● Participate in at least 75% of high-priority account strategy reviews and area/re.
