<h1><strong>About Orakl Oncology</strong></h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">Every cancer patient deserves a treatment that works for them. Today, too many never get one in time: fewer than 5% of new cancer drugs make it through clinical trials, and every failure costs patients precious time.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Orakl exists to change those odds.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We bridge biological and artificial intelligence by building large cohorts of virtual cancer patients, combining real patients' tumors with their medical histories and deep biological data. By integrating patient-derived tumor models, experimental biology and AI, we help pharmaceutical companies predict how cancer drugs will perform in patients, identify promising treatments and make better decisions earlier in drug development.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Founded in 2023 by Fanny Jaulin, PhD, Diane-Laure Pagès, PhD, and Gustave Ronteix, PhD, Orakl is a spin-out of Gustave Roussy, one of Europe's leading cancer centres, building on a decade of research. Backed by international investors, we are scaling our technology and partnerships with pharmaceutical companies worldwide.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Discover more at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://orakl-oncology.com">orakl-oncology.com</a></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h1><strong>The role</strong></h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">We are looking for our first <strong>Communications, Brand &amp; Events Lead</strong> to build Orakl's external presence from the ground up and establish the company as a leading voice in AI-driven cancer drug development.

Our communications must be distinctive and ambitious, but always grounded in scientific rigour, evidence and credibility.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2><strong>What you'll do</strong></h2><h3><strong>Communications and brand: building Orakl's voice</strong></h3><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Communications strategy.</strong> Define and execute Orakl's communications strategy across audiences, channels and markets, setting clear priorities that
