About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Medical Director to serve as the clinical lead in the design, implementation, and scientific oversight of clinical development programs in I&I. This role is pivotal, combining scientific leadership with hands-on study execution within a small, agile development team. The successful candidate will be responsible for the design and implementation of clinical study protocols, particularly early-phase, proof-of-concept studies, and will be expected to coordinate the development of protocol and study design documents with input from cross-functional stakeholders. Ongoing data review, including the interpretation of clinical safety and efficacy data, and the ability to identify emerging signals and translate findings into study recommendations, are also key aspects of the position.

Applicants must have an advanced degree in medicine, life sciences, or a related discipline, with a minimum of 5 years' clinical development or clinical science experience in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry. Experience in early clinical development, particularly in the therapeutic areas of immunology and inflammation, is highly desirable. The role requires the ability to lead or contribute to clinical trial design, influence cross-functional teams, and maintain a combination of detail-oriented execution and strategic thinking. The ideal candidate will be comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-moving development environment and be willing to work flexible hours to support global collaborations.
