Intelligence details
Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering if you already have pharmacovigilance or drug-safety experience and want a sponsor-dedicated leadership step at a major CRO. Clinicians with no PV background will likely find the experience bar too high for an Associate Director title.
Who should apply
Pharmacists and nurses with prior drug safety, case processing or medical information experience; physicians with clinical trial or safety reporting exposure; healthcare graduates who have already worked in a PV operations or aggregate reporting role.
CV angle
Reframe clinical work as safety surveillance: highlight adverse event identification and documentation, medication error reporting, MedDRA-coded case narratives, signal follow-up, risk-benefit discussions, and familiarity with GVP/ICH timelines. Quantify caseloads, audit outcomes and cross-functional projects rather than listing ward duties.
Skills to highlight
- Adverse event case assessment and narrative writing
- MedDRA coding and safety database familiarity
- Signal detection and literature/safety surveillance
- Aggregate report contributions (PSUR/PBRER/DSUR)
- GVP and ICH regulatory timeline compliance
- Cross-functional collaboration with medical monitors and regulatory teams
- Clinical pharmacology and medication safety knowledge
- Audit/inspection readiness and documentation quality
Role summary
A sponsor-dedicated pharmacovigilance leadership role at IQVIA overseeing safety surveillance for marketed products — reviewing adverse event cases, supporting signal detection and aggregate reporting, and ensuring GVP-compliant safety deliverables for a client sponsor.
