Are you an expert within Safety Pharmacology with extensive knowledge in designing and interpreting high quality studies, translating scientific findings into applicable information in a drug development environment? Be part of a dedicated Research & Development team. Fuelled by our commitment to help more patients, strengthen our pipeline and grow our area.
To help deliver our growing portfolio, we are currently seeking an experienced Safety Pharmacologist to join the Safety & Mechanistic Pharmacology team at AstraZeneca as a Director, Safety and Mechanistic Pharmacology.
The Regulatory Toxicology and Safety Pharmacology team sits within CPSS and plays a central role in progressing a rich and diverse pipeline comprising many different modalities across all of our therapeutic areas. We work collaboratively to deliver safety science from early discovery through clinical development, with emphasis on the science and studies required to enable the clinical development of new medicines. Clinical Pharmacology & Safety Sciences (CPSS) is a multi-faceted department which underpins AstraZeneca's Biopharmaceutical and Oncology Portfolio from target selection through to Life-cycle management.
What you will do:
In this role you will apply your extensive drug discovery expertise to support the progression of a progression of a broad portfolio of drug projects. You'll be responsible for authoring Safety Pharmacology sections of submission documents, engaging with and responding to Health Authority questions and contributing to the labelling of new products. Earlier in the drug discovery pipeline, you will be designing and interpreting safety pharmacology studies enabling first time in human submissions as well as investigative work at all stages. This will involve close collaboration with a wide range of experts in a highly matrixed environment across the development chain, for multiple project safety teams in parallel. You'll be working with many different modalities beyond classical biopharmaceuticals, so you'll need to be creative and work in areas where there are no pre-defined solutions, utilising the best capabilities within and outside AstraZeneca.
