jobbeskrivelse:
- Safety - Denmark - Bagsværd Is drug safety important to you? Do you want to play a key role in development of new products including New Drug Applications (NDA’s) to health authorities and surveillance of products on the market? Is setting direction and motivating a team of highly engaged professionals one of your key competencies? If so, then you may be one of our two new team leaders! About the department The Safety surveillance GLP-1 & Obesity department (24 people) is a high-performing scientific and dynamic department with quality, success and fun as important keywords in our daily working life. As there is an increasing focus on drug safety (internally, health authorities, patients etc.), we continuously strive to improve our processes and educate/train ourselves to ensure we can act as a high-performing team and as expert collaborators. Our main responsibility is to perform close surveillance of all adverse events reported to Novo Nordisk from all sources (clinical trials, marketed products, literature) for identification of any potential safety issue in relation to our drugs (primarily GLP-1 analogues for treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity), and to be able to take action if needed to minimise risks to patients (risk management). The job As team leader of one of the two teams - with six to seven professionals (MDs, pharmacists, human biologists etc.) in each team, you will primarily spend your time on people management activities such as coaching, motivating, goal-setting, individual development plans, 1:1 meetings, manpower resource forecasting etc. In addition you will be responsible for alignment between projects, and be back-up to the team members. One of the teams is working with a new long acting GLP-1 analog from phase I-III, and the other team is working with two GLP-1 analog projects - both in the submission/approval phase with expected approval within a year. Qualifications You have successful experience with people management. You have a minimum of two years of experience from the pharmaceutical industry e.g. from Regulatory Affairs, R&D or from Pharmacovigilance. You have a solid knowledge about scientific methodology and data analysis as well as knowledge about clinical pharmacology, pathophysiology and epidemiology. You have a university degree within medical or natural sciences (MD, M.Sc. Pharm., M.Sc. Human Biology or equivalent). A scientific degree (e.g. PhD) would be an additional asset. As a person you are optimistic, energetic and passionate in relation to your job. You have excellent people skills and your leadership style is characterized by high empathy and the ability to coach and motivate your team to high performances. You have good communication skills and you are a well organised, responsible, independent team player. You are able to prioritise tasks and work under pressure when needed. You are fluent in English, both written and spoken, and you are an experienced user of MS Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook). The application should be written in English. At Novo Nordisk, we create value by putting patients first. Every ten seconds two people are diagnosed with diabetes, and more than 371 million people worldwide need us. Working here is not just a way to make a living, but a way to make a difference.
