Vice President, Regulatory Affairs

<div class="content-intro"><p>At Keros, our mission is to deliver significant clinical benefit to a wide range of patients with disorders that are linked to dysfunctional signaling of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-ß) family of proteins. With a focus on developing differentiated product candidates that are designed to alter TGF-β signaling, we aim to target the pathways critical for the growth, repair and maintenance of blood cells and a number of tissues, including bone, skeletal muscle, adipose and heart tissue. We believe our product candidates have the potential to unlock the full therapeutic benefits of modulating the TGF-β superfamily and provide disease-modifying benefit to patients.</p></div><p><strong><span data-contrast="none">Job Summary</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559738":30,"335559739":30,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">Reporting to the CMO, the ideal candidate will be responsible for developing and delivering innovative, breakthrough global regulatory strategies for product development and approval, in alignment with the global business strategy.
