The specialist leverages analytics and call reporting software to derive insights, optimize territory call plans, and identify next-best actions based on HCP needs and market dynamics.

• The position requires strategic planning and self-direction, including effective use of calendaring tools, leadership goals, and personal insights to prioritize customer engagements across virtual and in-person formats. Specialists are expected to bring frontline insights from HCP interactions and surveys back to leadership to improve engagement models and drive continuous improvement.
