Clinical Specialist Manager - EU

Anteris® Technologies is a global structural heart company dedicated to revolutionizing cardiac care. With offices in Minneapolis, MN, US; Geneva, Switzerland; and Brisbane and Perth, Australia, we have a growing and inclusive team.

Our mission is to forge new frontiers in cardiac care by pioneering science-driven and measurable advancements to restore heart valve patients to healthy function. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) technologies were originally designed for older, high-risk patients. Today, younger, more active patients need a better solution that will not just open and close but restore healthy heart function. We seek to restore healthy blood flow patterns by creating the world’s first biomimetic TAVR valve, DurAVR® THV. This cutting-edge valve, incorporating our proprietary ADAPT® anti-calcification technology, is designed to mimic the natural function of a healthy heart valve.

The Clinical Specialist (CS) Manager will lead and mentor a team of Clinical Specialists supporting European clinical trial sites for the DurAVR™ Pivotal IDE Study. Reporting to the Senior Director of Therapy Development, this leader will ensure best-in-class case support, assist in driving site engagement, and operational efficiency across the clinical specialist team.

This role requires clinical expertise in TAVR to ensure optimal clinical team performance, adherence of procedural best practices, and successful site activation, and trial execution. The CS Manager will partner cross-functionally with Clinical Affairs, Regulatory, R&D, Quality, and Marketing to ensure alignment of clinical execution with corporate strategy and trial objectives.

At Anteris® Technologies, you’ll join a team committed to improving the lives of patients with aortic stenosis through groundbreaking structural heart solutions. This is an opportunity to make a measurable impact on patient outcomes while shaping the future of heart valve innovation.
