About the Job

We are an innovative global healthcare company with a focus on immunology that extends to innovation in diabetes and transplant medicine. Across different countries, our talented teams are determined to deliver a best-in-class customer experience using the best of digital, artificial intelligence and personal know-how. With a focus on immunology that extends to innovation in diabetes and transplant medicines, we pursue progress to make a real impact on millions of patients around the world.

At Sanofi, we are driven by one purpose – we chase the miracles of science to improve people’s lives. Our team, across some 100 countries, is dedicated to transforming the practice of medicine by working to turn the impossible into the possible.

We never settle and now we are creating a new paradigm with a first-in-class therapy in Autoimmune Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), which aims to delay the onset of Stage 3 T1D. The onset of Stage 3 T1D can have a major impact for patients and caregivers, including eventually needing insulin for the rest of their lives.  What delayed onset means is more time for patients and caregivers to continue to live without the daily challenges of Stage 3 T1D, including daily use of insulin and monitoring. It gives families and healthcare professionals more time to prepare care plans for a later diagnosis.

Sanofi recognizes that early detection of T1D and risk factors for developing T1D could improve health outcomes for T1D patients.  But many are unaware they are at risk of developing T1D, which highlights the important public health benefits associated with screening – as certain patients who are screened may potentially be appropriate for therapy upon further testing and consultation with their HCP.  Detecting T1D early can prevent years of moderately elevated blood sugar levels and also potentially reduce the risk of going through Diabetic KetoAcidosis (“DKA”), which is a serious complication of diabetes that can lead to hospitalization and be life-threatening.  Undiagnosed T1D can be fatal – and screening can save lives.  It is therefore critical that people be proactively screened to help identify their risk for T1D, before symptoms appear. This is where you come in.

We now present an exciting opportunity for you to go further faster. If you’re excited by the prospect of helping to expand appropriate patient access to autoantibody screening tests, then we want to hear from you as we build a great team who will work to facilitate increased T1D screening for appropriate patients, allowing for early detection, education, and treatment.
