Senior pharma RWE/data platform leadership roles typically sit in competitive upper-management compensation bands; exact pay depends on location and experience. Demand should remain strong as pharma expands RWD/RWE use, but this is not an entry-level salary path.

Why this is worth applying to
Worth applying only if you already have senior oncology RWE, data strategy, or pharma data-partner leadership experience. Most clinicians without that background should treat this as a stretch or long-term target rather than an immediate application.
Who should apply
Oncology physicians, pharmacists, or IMGs with real-world evidence, clinical data strategy, medical affairs, publications, or pharma data-partner experience, especially those who have led cross-functional RWD/RWE programs.
CV angle
Frame oncology clinical experience as domain expertise for RWD/RWE strategy: highlight real-world evidence studies, oncology outcomes/treatment-pattern knowledge, data governance, publication work, cross-functional/matrix leadership, and any vendor/partner or AI/NLP data-curation exposure. Do not claim senior pharma data-platform leadership unless genuinely held.
Skills to highlight
- Real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) strategy
- Oncology clinical and outcomes expertise
- Data partner evaluation and negotiation
- EHR/unstructured data and AI/NLP curation
- Evidence generation and publications
- Matrix leadership and stakeholder communication
- Regulatory-grade data compliance and SOPs
Role summary
Senior scientific and strategic lead for AstraZeneca’s global oncology real-world data platform, owning data strategy, partner ecosystem, evidence-generation use cases, and cross-functional adoption.
