About the job
Would you like to work at the heart of the Global HQ of Nutricia/Danone within the Adult Medical Affairs team? Are you able to contribute to our product communication and innovation, engage with your stakeholders, and deliver input to our medical strategy? In this challenging role you will be responsible tactically and operationally for managing the medical activities of projects in elderly care.

Our focus is on delivering science-based nutritional solutions that support patients across all life stages, from early life to ageing populations.
As part of this team, you’ll contribute to shaping evidence-based strategies, building medical credibility, and improving access to specialized nutrition that transforms lives.
