About the Role

The Company is in search of a Senior Director, Head of Clinical Pharmacology with a focus on oncology. This pivotal leadership role demands a seasoned clinical pharmacology expert who can provide scientific, strategic, and operational guidance across the development portfolio. The successful candidate will be responsible for leading clinical pharmacology and translational PK/PD activities, influencing key development decisions, and ensuring the alignment of clinical pharmacology deliverables with the overall development strategy. A hands-on approach to the science is essential, as is the ability to partner closely with executive leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to accelerate development decisions and optimize patient outcomes. Applicants must have a PhD, PharmD, or MD in a relevant scientific discipline, with at least 10 years' experience in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry. Deep expertise in clinical pharmacology, PK/PD modeling, population PK, exposure-response analysis, and translational drug development, particularly in the context of oncology and biologics, is required. The role also involves team and vendor management, so experience in people management and a strong understanding of global regulatory expectations are crucial. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in leading and developing high-performing scientific teams, as well as experience in regulatory submissions and health authority interactions. A background in supporting biologics, monoclonal antibodies, or other complex therapeutic modalities is preferred, along with strong scientific communication and executive stakeholder management skills.
