Position Summary: Join Natera’s mission to change the way we understand, diagnose, and treat cancer. As Director of Marketing for Oncology (Pathology), you'll take the reins of our Altera™ Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) marketing strategy — one of the most exciting parts of our oncology portfolio. Your work will help drive awareness, engagement, and adoption of Altera™ Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) and Signatera across the pathology and molecular diagnostics communities while shaping the future of our precision oncology offerings.

• Craft compelling campaigns and develop value propositions that engage pathologists and molecular pathologists — across digital channels, sales materials, congresses, and beyond.

• Partner with sales, medical, product, and UX teams to align on positioning, messaging, and user-centric approaches.

• Identify and build relationships with key opinion leaders (KOLs) in pathology and genomics.

• Track, analyze, and optimize marketing performance, closing the loop between market need and Natera's offerings.

• Serve as a cross-functional thought leader representing Altera and Signatera in portfolio-level initiatives and presenting to executive leadership.

• Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in life sciences is preferred.

• 8-10 years of experience in diagnostics, biotech, or pharma marketing — with a focus in oncology, genomics, or advanced diagnostics.

• Experience with comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is strongly preferred.

• Willingness and ability to travel up to 25% (think: advisory boards, major congresses, field team meetings, and customer engagements).

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

• Deep knowledge of the genomic profiling landscape and its clinical applications.

• Ability to transform complex science into crystal-clear, market-ready messaging.

• Excellent communicator and collaborator — capable of influencing across disciplines and levels.

• Strategic thinker with operational horsepower — able to lead, execute, and adjust in a dynamic environment.

• Comfortable leading external agencies, internal teams, and driving toward results.

• A customer-first mindset that balances commercial goals with empathy and education.

The pay range is listed and actual compensation packages are based on a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, years & depth of experience, certifications and specific office location. This may differ in other locations due to cost of labor considerations.
