Intelligence details

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering if you already have some pharmacovigilance or drug safety exposure and want a sponsor-dedicated CRO leadership track; clinicians with zero PV experience will likely find the associate-director bar steep. Because the description is blank, verify scope, location, and experience requirements before investing time.

Who should apply

Pharmacists with drug safety or clinical trial experience, nurses or physicians who have worked in adverse event reporting, medical information, or clinical research, and IMGs with CRO or pharma safety exposure seeking a non-clinical career path.

CV angle

Reframe clinical experience around safety: adverse event identification and documentation, medication error reporting, causality and severity assessment, knowledge of ICH/GVP principles, regulatory timeline adherence, and cross-functional communication with investigators or sponsors. Quantify case volumes, audit outcomes, and SOP compliance where real, and name any safety database systems (e.g., Argus, ARISg) you have actually used.

Skills to highlight

  • Adverse event case assessment and narrative writing
  • ICH E2E / GVP regulatory knowledge
  • MedDRA coding and safety database familiarity
  • Signal detection and aggregate report support
  • SOP and regulatory timeline compliance
  • Cross-functional communication with sponsors and investigators
  • Clinical pharmacology and medication safety knowledge
  • Audit and inspection readiness

Role summary

A sponsor-dedicated pharmacovigilance leadership role at IQVIA overseeing marketed product safety activities — likely including adverse event case oversight, signal management, aggregate safety reporting, and compliance with global drug safety regulations — with no patient-facing duties.
