Requirements

  • A PhD or Master's degree in Epidemiology is preferred; an MD, PharmD, or bachelor's degree may be considered with significant applicable experience.
  • Experience supporting Integrated Evidence Planning is required.
  • Experience coordinating multi-stakeholder planning activities and translating strategic direction into clear plans, actions, timelines, and tracking mechanisms.
  • Strong working knowledge of the drug-development process and the role of medical evidence generation across the asset lifecycle; oncology experience is preferred where relevant to the assigned portfolio.
  • Strong understanding of observational research, real-world evidence, and low-interventional study approaches, with the ability to engage appropriate scientific and methodological experts.
  • Demonstrated ability to facilitate cross-functional discussions, synthesize diverse inputs, document decisions, and escalate issues appropriately.
  • Strong organizational, project coordination, and communication skills, with attention to version control, dependencies, risks, and follow-through.
  • Ability to work effectively in a matrix environment under the direction of senior strategy and functional leaders.

Responsibilities

  • Coordinate the development of Integrated Evidence Plans (IEPs) based on evidence strategy and priorities established by the Medical Evidence Development Therapeutic Area Lead, asset leadership, and relevant governance teams.
  • Facilitate and coordinate cross-functional working sessions to gather, document, and reconcile input from Medical Affairs, Epidemiology/real-world evidence, Statistics/Programming, Regulatory, Safety, Operations, Quality, Global Access & Value, International, and other partner functions.
  • Translate approved evidence strategy into a structured IEP that clearly documents evidence gaps, planned activities, dependencies, owners, timelines, and expected deliverables.
  • Apply established planning frameworks, templates, and standards to support consistency and quality across assigned asset IEPs.
  • Escalate unresolved strategic questions, prioritization decisions, resource constraints, and material cross-functional misalignment to the appropriate strategy owner or governance forum.
  • Maintain current versions of assigned IEPs and coordinate periodic reviews and refreshes in response to approved strategy changes, emerging evidence, study results, or changes in asset plans.
  • Support evaluation of whether proposed evidence-generation activities are operationally feasible and sufficiently defined for implementation.
  • Identify opportunities to apply established or emerging evidence-generation approaches and bring recommendations to appropriate subject-matter experts and decision owners.
  • Coordinate ongoing monitoring of IEP activities for assigned assets, including milestones, dependencies, risks, decisions, and changes to planned evidence-generation activities.
  • Partner with the MED Program Management team and study teams to maintain trackers, dashboards, meeting materials, and status reports supporting oversight of the medical research agenda.
  • Prepare consolidated progress updates and decision-support materials for the Therapeutic Area Lead, asset teams, Medical Affairs leadership, and other designated stakeholders.
  • Follow up with activity owners to confirm that approved actions, plan updates, and agreed deliverables are reflected in the IEP and supporting tracking tools.
  • Support early research concept discussions by documenting requirements, coordinating input, and connecting teams with relevant MED and functional subject-matter experts.
  • Track execution risks and limitations, support development of mitigation actions, and escalate issues requiring strategic or governance decisions.
  • Provide operational input into selected study-design and planning discussions, while deferring final scientific, strategic, regulatory, and prioritization decisions to accountable functional leaders.
  • Coordinate review of selected regulatory and study-level documents by the appropriate MED asset and functional reviewers, as requested.
  • Participate in therapeutic-area or enterprise evidence-generation initiatives as the operational representative for assigned assets.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience supporting medical affairs research, real-world evidence, outcomes research, or clinical development.
  • Experience supporting regulatory-grade evidence projects or regulatory interactions; accountability for regulatory strategy or correspondence is not required.
