hela Sverige Are you excited about Precision Medicine? Would you like have an impact on patients' lives and contribute to eliminate cancer as a cause of death? If so then join us!
We're investing like never before in our people, in growth, and in new diagnostic techniques and technologies. There are opportunities at every turn, with a variety and breadth that is uncommon to find and an industry-leading pipeline in oncology. Scientists at AstraZeneca are working every day to turn science fiction into science fact. Our ambition - to develop innovative, targeted medicines for every patient that needs them - and to match those treatments to patients most likely to benefit from them - is now a reality. This approach, known as Precision Medicine, is based on those individual characteristics that make some patients respond to treatment better than others. We use this knowledge to develop diagnostic tests that doctors can use to help prescribe the best treatment for each patient. Indeed, it's now become common practice for patients with cancer to be offered such diagnostic tests before their treatment plan is agreed.
The AstraZeneca Companion Diagnostics Unit within the Precision Medicine and Biosamples function drives scientific leadership through the delivery of innovative companion diagnostics enabling our oncology ambition to transform the lives of patients living with cancer, and ultimately eliminate cancer as a cause of death.
We do this by:
* Leading the development of diagnostics across AstraZeneca's early and late stage oncology portfolios through close collaborations with our external diagnostic partners
* Leading the development and implementation of patient selection strategies to deliver companion diagnostics programs in support of our business priorities
* Leading companion diagnostic regulatory interactions to secure companion diagnostic approvals in major markets
* Developing strategies for early cancer detection, near patient testing and implementing testing options for minimal residual disease and early treatment interventions
* Utilising artificial intelligence diagnostic solutions and seeing software as a medical device
* Developing specific disease area strategies (e.g. lung cancer, breast cancer or hematological malignancies) and new diagnostic modalities
* Collaborating closely with fellow pharma companies on joint assets
What you'll do
As a Senior Director you'll be a member of the Oncology Companion Diagnostic Unit (CDU). Working collaboratively your objective will be to ensure that innovative diagnostic tests or equivalent segmentation tools are delivered to drug products within your therapeutic area of expertise.
As a director you will achieve this by leading a Global Product Diagnostic sub team made up of functional experts and be empowered to deliver all scientific, technical, clinical, financial, regulatory, intellectual property, commercial and partnering aspects needed to implement the diagnostic strategy. You will be accountable for ensuring that the roles and responsibilities of the team are delivered demonstrating behaviours and values aligned to AstraZeneca Code of Conduct and supporting policies, standards and procedures; including accountability for compliant management of Budget, Safety, Health and Environment.
You will be accountable for delivery to several Global Product teams and to act as the single point of contact for all Precision Medicine activities to those product team(s). Being accountable to the Leaders of the relevant product teams you will ensure that the associated diagnostic development reflects world-class practice in the field and contributes to an increased probability of successful drug launch, reimbursement and return on investment.
Your role will also involve contributing to the personal development of project team members. Providing expert advice on strategic and innovative Precision Medicine approaches and companion diagnostic developments to development teams, you'll be instrumental in ensuring that we adopt world-class practice in the field.
