<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Company introduction:</strong></span></p> <p><span data-ogsc="rgb(0, 0, 0)">Compass Pathways plc (Nasdaq: CMPS) is a biotechnology company dedicated to unlocking urgently needed new treatment options in mental health care. </span></p> <p><span data-ogsc="rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Company is headquartered in London, UK, with a U.S. office in New Jersey. We believe mental health patients deserve the possibility of a better future. Our initial focus is developing COMP360 psilocybin, a proprietary, investigational, synthetic psilocybin treatment under evaluation for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). COMP360 is a potentially first-in-class treatment and has Breakthrough Therapy designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as well as Innovative Licensing and Access Pathway (ILAP) designation in the UK for TRD. </span></p> <p><span data-ogsc="rgb(0, 0, 0)">We are leading the world’s largest classic psychedelic clinical program in TRD, and building upon that robust foundation, we are executing a late-stage trial evaluating COMP360 for PTSD, another condition with high unmet need. Our goal is to advance treatments that move the field of psychiatry towards treatment options that offer rapid onset and sustained durability with infrequent dosing. -<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a id="OWA7b9a9bdd-820c-52e3-19e0-7302f475ddce" class="x_OWAAutoLink" href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcompasspathways.com%2F&data=05%7C02%7CAlexis.Rached%40compasspathways.com%7C81c31d1d5b344b36655308deebefbd0f%7Cb94a191dccb54154868e9dcbcb3e1412%7C0%7C0%7C639207612126678649%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=gtzmMKpxYEvhVQspKpFeeyQ6S%2Fq84f%2FpCwFrBs4C4Jc%3D&reserved=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-outlook-id="9c215bbc-5d45-4e9b-afdf-92d15cea8a68" data-ogsc=""><u>Compass Pathways</u></a></span></p></div><p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Job overview:</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Director, Medical Information will lead the strategic development, implementation, and continuous evolution of the Medical Information function in support of COMP360 and future pipeline assets.
