• Converting complex model outputs into clear scientific recommendations for cross‐functional teams and senior stakeholders.
• Producing high‐quality, regulatory‐appropriate analysis plans, reports and documentation.
• Managing external vendors and supporting the build‐out of internal PMx capability.
• Coaching team members and championing state‐of‐the‐art mechanistic modelling approaches.

My client is looking for someone with:

• A PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Engineering, Statistics or a related modelling discipline.
• 5+ years of PBPK and QSP experience in the biotech/pharma sector.
• Strong practical skills in PK‐Sim/MoBi, SimCyp, GastroPlus, Matlab and R.
