Led by an established executive team and backed by world-class life science investors, each day Beeline Medicines is determined to bring the scientific rigor and operational excellence to get to what matters for patients - realizing a world where people with immune-mediated diseases can live life fully. Job Summary: The Senior Director, Field Medical Affairs leads the strategic direction, operational execution, and performance of the Field Medical team within the Immunology & Inflammation (I&I) therapeutic area. This individual serves as a key scientific and medical leadership partner, responsible for building and sustaining high-impact medical engagement with key opinion leaders (KOLs), academic medical centers, integrated delivery networks (IDNs), and other external experts across the I&I landscape. Reporting to the Executive Director of Medical Affairs, the Senior Director will cultivate a culture of scientific excellence, field intelligence, and cross-functional collaboration, while ensuring all medical activities are conducted in full compliance with applicable regulations, SOPs, and the highest ethical standards. Work Arrangement & Location: Field-Based - This position is field-based, and the incumbent will be expected to work within their assigned territory or region on behalf of the company. Regular travel within the designated geography is an inherent requirement of this role. Additional travel outside of the assigned territory may be required based on business need, including attendance at company meetings, training, or other organizational events. Essential Duties and Responsibilities: Lead high-quality, non-promotional scientific exchange with international KMEs, clinical investigators, and academic experts across Immunology & Inflammation. Develop and maintain long-term, credible relationships with global thought leaders and emerging experts in relevant disease areas (e.g., rheumatology, dermatology, gastroenterology). Represent Medical Affairs at international congresses, advisory boards, and scientific meetings; serve as a credible scientific voice for the organization externally. Deliver accurate, balanced, and fully compliant communication of clinical, translational, and real-world data in all field interactions. Architect and own the Global Field Medical Affairs strategic plan across regions, in close partnership with the VP of Medical Affairs and cross-functional leadership. Provide field-based medical insights that inform clinical development decisions, publication strategy, medical education programming, and product lifecycle planning. Contribute to the development of scientific platform content, medical FAQs, field tools, and internal training materials. Ensure scientific rigor and consistency across all global field medical activities as the organization expands geographically. Support clinical trial site engagement, investigator-initiated research (IIR/IST) identification and feasibility, and real-world evidence initiatives. Systematically capture, synthesize, and communicate actionable medical insights from the field to internal stakeholders including Clinical Development, Regulatory, and Portfolio Strategy. Partner with Clinical Development on protocol feasibility assessment, endpoint relevance, and site relationship management. Define the operational blueprint for the Field Medical Affairs function: territory design, MSL hiring criteria, onboarding curricula, field tools, and CRM/reporting infrastructure. Lead the recruitment, selection, and onboarding of MSLs as headcount is approved; establish performance frameworks and individual development plans from day one. Build and continuously refine Medical Affairs processes, standards, and best practices that will scale with the organization. Serve as the internal champion for field medical as a discipline - educating cross-functional stakeholders on the MSL model and embedding field insights into governance and planning processes. Partner effectively across Clinical, Regulatory, Safety, and other cross functional stakeholders - wearing multiple hats comfortably in a matrixed biotech environment. Contribute to advisory board design and execution, medical education programs, and congress strategy. Perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned
