Description

Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities

The Associate Director (AD) Safety Analysis Scientist (SAS) provides scientific expertise and leads the

safety assessment of assigned products. The AD SAS, in partnership with the Medical Safety Officer

for regulatory compliance and to aid in safety-related decisions for marketed products and products in

development.

The AD SAS will support product Safety Management Teams (SMTs) and work in close collaboration with

other cross-functional safety partners to determine a product’s safety strategy, complete safety analyses

and evaluations, proactively review safety data/lead safety data review meetings and interpret safety

information to make a recommendation, supporting SMT deliverables as required.
