For the right person, this role offers both depth and breadth: deep technical challenge, real leadership responsibility, and the visibility that comes with influencing senior leadership and cross-functional teams.</p><p></p><p><b>What You'll Be Doing</b></p><p><i>Driving proactive risk management across a major clinical portfolio</i></p><ul><li>You'll own the end-to-end risk management process for your assigned studies from Quality by Design and protocol de-risking right through to lifecycle management and reporting.</li><li>Using statistical methodologies and data visualisation tools, you'll leverage trends, outliers, and risk signals across clinical and operational data, and translate those findings into a clear, compelling risk narrative for study teams, key stakeholders and governance committees.</li></ul><p></p><p><i>Being the connective tissue between data and decision-making</i></p><ul><li>You won't just produce reports, you'll shape how the organisation understands and responds to risk.</li><li>You'll connect study-level Risk Review Meeting outcomes to portfolio-level insights, ensuring the right people have the right information to act quickly and confidently.</li></ul><p></p><p><i>Leading and influencing across the organisation</i></p><ul><li>Whether it's escalating quality threshold deviations to the Quality Council, overseeing output from external partners and technology providers, or leading continuous improvement initiatives within TRIM, you'll be a trusted voice across Trial Delivery Support, Global Development Operations, and broader BMS functions.</li><li>You'll also coach and mentor newer team members, helping build a culture of accountability, integrity, and inclusion.</li></ul><p></p><p><b>What You Bring</b></p><ul><li>A <b>degree </b>in Life Sciences, Data Science, Statistics, Analytics, Business, or a related field</li><li><b>8+ years</b> in the pharmaceutical industry, with a strong grounding in drug development</li><li><b>5+ years</b> in clinical trial operations and/or Good Clinical Practice</li><li>Solid expertise in Risk-Based Monitoring principles; including Quality by Design, Risk Assessment & Control, and tools such as risk management plans and risk analytics platforms</li></ul><p></p><p>You're someone who can read complex data and tell a clear story from it. You're comfortable in front of senior leadership, equally at ease working cross-functionally, and you bring the kind of strategic thinking that helps an organisation stay ahead of challenges rather than react to them.</p><p></p><p><b>Who Thrives in This Role</b></p><p>You're technically sharp but not siloed. You communicate with clarity and confidence, whether you're presenting to a Governance Committee or mentoring someone new to the team. You're curious, proactive, and genuinely motivated by the idea that better risk management means better outcomes for patients.</p><p></p><p><i>If you're looking for a role where your expertise creates real impact, across a major portfolio, at a company that leads in drug development, this is it.</i></p><p>#LI-Hybrid</p><p style="text-align:left"><i>If you come across a role that intrigues you but doesn’t perfectly line up with your resume, we encourage you to apply anyway.
