Intelligence details
Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering only if you already have regulatory affairs or clinical trial submission experience plus leadership scope; clinicians without RA background are unlikely to clear a director-level screen. The posting provides too little detail to tailor an application without further research.
Who should apply
Physicians or pharmacists with prior regulatory affairs, CTA/CTR submission, or clinical trial operations leadership experience in pharma or CROs. Clinician-regulators who have interfaced with health authorities (EMA, MHRA, FDA) and managed cross-regional submission portfolios.
CV angle
Reframe clinical and research experience around regulatory deliverables: trial protocol and amendment authorship, GCP compliance, health authority-facing documentation, safety reporting timelines, and cross-functional coordination with regulatory, clinical operations, and pharmacovigilance. Quantify submission volumes, trial phases, and regions supported; do not claim regulatory strategy ownership you did not hold.
Skills to highlight
- Clinical trial application (CTA) and submission preparation
- Knowledge of clinical trial regulations (EU CTR, ICH-GCP)
- Health authority interaction and query response
- Cross-functional project leadership
- Regulatory document review and quality control
- Risk and compliance management
- Stakeholder management across regions
Role summary
A senior global regulatory affairs role at Novartis overseeing central regulatory solutions for clinical trial applications and clinical trial regulation submissions. Expected to lead strategy, processes, and cross-functional delivery of CTA/CTR activities across regions, though specific duties are not described in the posting.
