Our Industry: Where we play

We sit at the intersection of technology and Life Sciences industries. Humbly, we’ve been told that we are the leader in application software for the clinical development process, tackling real-world problems and making a real difference in the lives of patients everywhere. With the current transformation in the life sciences industry, we are at the forefront of providing an advanced clinical development platform for our clients to further improve the accuracy, timeliness and ease of the data collection process. That means better treatments can reach waiting patients sooner. We are publicly traded (MDSO) with over 500 customers, customer retention rates above 99%, and the experience of supporting more than 10,000 clinical trials. We are still led by Co-founders, Tarek Sherif and Glen de Vries, and have global operations in US, Europe and Asia.

Your Mission:

Impact the future of the life sciences industry by helping Medidata win against key competitors – continuing to extend our leadership position in the industry. Work with senior leaders, customers and external thought leaders to assess the competitive landscape, identifying specific threats and opportunities. Create Medidata’s strategic “win plan” to win against select, strategically significant competitors. Collaborate closely with stakeholders across the organization to define action plans, manage and support execution. Lead ongoing “in-market” learning and refine game-plan and tactics where needed. This is a highly visible role and may broaden over time to include other strategic responsibilities.
