Pharmacy Tech jobs in United Arab Emirates

Our client, a global healthcare provider, is looking for a Data Protection/Regulatory Lawyer who will lead this small team of lawyers in their life sciences group. This is a key commercial role with a particular focus on government projects and work globally across pharma, biotechnology, medical devices, and digital health.

The client is looking for a head of department, so 8-10 years PQE is a must.

• Draft, review and advise on a wide range of complex IP agreements, biopharma partnering arrangements, and other commercial contracts in the life science and healthcare sectors. The client base spans the pharmaceutical, biotech (including AIDD, techbio, synbio, and industrial biotech), medical devices, diagnostics, digital health, and healthcare sectors, ranging from the most sophisticated multinational companies and investors to some of the world’s most innovative venture-backed early and growth stage companies.
• Your work will often be at the cutting edge of technology commercialization, having a real and direct impact on clients' growth and patient outcomes by supporting clients to bring to market new therapies, platforms, and other products based on each new wave of technology. You will be immersed in an exciting, fast-paced ecosystem, with as much client contact as you can handle, alongside some of the world’s brightest founder-entrepreneurs and most insightful investors. Depending on experience, you will be expected to communicate with clients independently and under supervision.
• The majority of your work will be life-science and healthcare-related, but there will also be opportunities in the deep tech sector (e.g. semiconductors, fusion and other energy generation tech, battery tech, graphene and other novel materials, robotics, quantum computing, cryptography, large-language model development, etc.) and in neighboring fields, such as the cleantech, defense tech, and space tech sectors.

• Excellent academics; a STEM undergraduate degree in a technical area is helpful but not required.
• A qualified solicitor with relevant legal experience gained from a top-tier UK or international practice.
• Prior experience in a well-regarded life sciences team, advising a range of clients within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and/or medtech industries.
• Strong data protection/regulatory background.
• Excellent prior experience of advising, drafting, and reviewing contracts and agreements.
