Are you passionate about science and have an extensive knowledge within the pharmaceutical industry? Are you also experienced within clinical operations and project management?

We are now recruiting a Global Clinical Operations Program Development Director (GPD) to the newly formed BioPharmaceuticals Clinical Operations function for Late Stage Development Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolic therapy area in R&D.

What you'll do

The role as an GPD is global, the span of responsibilities is broad and may support one or several products depending on their size and complexity. The products supported will be in Phase 3 development or already on the Market, but the program may include studies in all phases of drug development.

The GPD is responsible for oversight of a program of global studies, covering all clinical development deliverables (including aspects of quality, budget, time, resource, and risk). The role also involves integrating design, feasibility, and operational planning to ensure clinical drug development programs are aligned with priorities and strategy. The GPD will provide input and support to the Senior GPD in preparation for governance interactions.
