• Review and analyze data from clinical trials, post-marketing and other relevant sources for the prompt identification of safety signals. Review and evaluate serious adverse event reports from clinical trials or post-marketing for completeness, accuracy, expectedness and relatedness.
• Lead internal and external (especially regulatory, but also expert advisory) interactions to ensure quality outcomes in the risk evaluation and management of assigned projects/products.
• Define and implement strategies and action plans for identifying and managing risks throughout the product life cycle.
• Effectively coordinate and manage available resources in developing and delivering high-quality safety evaluation related documents/deliverables on time.
