Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering only if you are an oncology clinician who already has outcomes research, epidemiology, or pharma medical affairs experience — the title signals a senior strategic leadership post, not a transition entry point.

Who should apply

Oncology physicians or clinical pharmacists with HEOR, epidemiology, or real-world evidence experience; clinician-scientists with observational study and publication track records; former medical affairs or evidence-generation leads in pharma or CROs.

CV angle

Foreground genuine oncology clinical depth (tumour types, treatment pathways, trial involvement) and translate it into evidence language: study design, endpoint selection, real-world data sources (EHR, claims, registries), patient-reported outcomes, and publication/scientific communication. Quantify cross-functional leadership, protocol contributions, and any HTA/payer-facing or regulatory-grade evidence work — do not claim HEOR or pharma experience you do not have.

Skills to highlight

  • Oncology clinical expertise
  • Observational/real-world study design and epidemiology
  • Real-world data sources (EHR, claims, registries)
  • Health outcomes and patient-reported outcomes measurement
  • Scientific writing and publication
  • Cross-functional and vendor leadership
  • Regulatory and HTA evidence awareness

Role summary

A senior pharma role leading global real-world evidence and health outcomes strategy across an oncology portfolio — designing observational studies, shaping evidence generation plans, and translating real-world data into value and access messages for regulators, payers, and clinicians.
