Clinical Scientist, Early Clinical Development, CVRM

Job at AstraZeneca in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire

An Exciting Opportunity in CVRM Translational Science and Clinical Development

This role offers a compelling opportunity for an experienced scientist to contribute significantly to the advancement of therapies for Cardiovascular, Renal, and Metabolism (CVRM) diseases. If you are passionate about groundbreaking scientific methods and data-driven drug discovery, and are driven by a desire to improve patient lives, this position within our Translational Science and Clinical Development team is an excellent next step in your career.

Key Advantages for Candidates:

  • Work at the Forefront of Innovation: Engage in cutting-edge research investigating the drivers of CVRM disease progression. You will be instrumental in the translational and clinical development of novel therapies, working with a rich portfolio of drug modalities.
  • Multidisciplinary Collaboration: Immerse yourself in a dynamic, cross-functional environment. You will collaborate with discovery scientists, regulatory affairs, clinical development, and commercial colleagues, fostering a holistic approach to drug development.
  • Impactful Disease Areas: Contribute to therapies targeting major metabolic disorders, recognizing their profound intersection with cardiovascular and kidney diseases. This role allows you to address complex health challenges with significant patient impact.
  • Early-Stage Research Focus: Gain invaluable experience at the forefront of early clinical and translational research, from target validation and clinical trial design to data interpretation and reporting.
  • Global Reach: Contribute to strategies and development plans for potential therapies on a global scale, working within a diverse and internationally focused organization.
  • Professional Growth: Develop a deep understanding of the scientific literature and drug development trends in metabolic diseases, cardiovascular conditions, and kidney disorders, enhancing your expertise.

Key Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Deep Expertise Required: This role demands significant clinical and/or translational research experience specifically in metabolic disease and obesity. A strong foundation in biomarker evaluation, human target validation, or translational science is essential.
  • Proven Clinical Trial Acumen: Candidates should possess demonstrable experience in the design, execution, and scientific support of clinical studies. This includes the ability to write clinical synopses, protocols, and regulatory materials.
  • Scientific Breadth: A strong understanding of disease mechanisms, diagnostic approaches, current treatment options, and regulatory requirements within CVRM disease areas is crucial. You will be expected to stay abreast of the latest thinking in these fields.
  • Publication Record: A good publication track record is an indicator of your scientific contribution and ability to disseminate research findings effectively.
  • Adaptability and Collaboration: The ability to collaborate successfully on global, cross-disciplinary teams, coupled with a strong delivery focus and excellent communication skills, is paramount in this role.
  • Industry Experience: While a Ph.D. with 5 years of relevant experience is the basic requirement, experience in an early clinical trial/research setting within the pharmaceutical industry is particularly advantageous.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a driven scientist looking to make a tangible difference in the lives of patients suffering from CVRM diseases. If you are ready to bring new insights and fresh thinking to a leading organization, we encourage you to explore this exciting prospect.
