Gladsaxe, Gladsaxe Municipality, Denmark Novo Nordisk AS Full time

Would you like to be a part of the ambitious journey towards ensuring that patients' experiences, perspectives, needs, and priorities are captured and meaningfully incorporated into drug development and evaluation? Are you ready to shape the future of clinical trials through clinical outcomes assessment (COA)? Do you thrive in cross-functional collaborations in a global environment?

Then, this is your chance as we are looking for a Clinical Outcome Assessment Specialist in Medical & Science, Patient Focused Drug Development (PFDD).

Our commitment to innovation extends to how we work. We offer flexible work arrangements, including the option to work fully remotely or onsite at our office in Søborg, Denmark, where our team is based.

The position

Patients' perspectives and experiences are important focus areas for Novo Nordisk when developing better treatments for people living with serious chronic disease.

We are looking for a person with skills, interest, and experience in developing and using COAs in clinical drug development, primarily to generate evidence to inform regulatory benefit-risk assessments and support labelling claims but also to inform payers' decision-making and scientific communication with health care professionals.

As Clinical Outcome Assessment Specialist:

  • You will have a pivotal role in developing COA strategies, COA-related interactions with health authorities, and will be responsible for the selection, modification, development, validation, and implementation of fit-for-purpose COAs in clinical trials.
  • You will be involved in other COA-related scientific activities, such as in-trial interviews.
  • Your engagement will encompass the entire drug development life cycle across Novo Nordisk's portfolio, from early planning and execution to the development of COA dossiers and other regulatory briefing books, as well as supporting the communication of COA outcomes through publications.
  • You will collaborate closely with stakeholders from Medical & Science, Market access, Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Operations, Outsourcing, Medical Affairs, and Marketing, as well as various external vendors and advisors.
Qualifications

To succeed in the role, we expect you to have:

  • Master's degree or above in a relevant field such as health economics, pharmacy, public health, psychology, medicine or epidemiology.
  • 4+ years' experience in COA development and validation methods with knowledge of collection, analysis, and reporting of qualitative and quantitative data.
  • Knowledge of clinical drug development and relevant regulatory guidelines (preferred).
  • The ability to manage multiple priorities and projects, and balance workload and timelines.
  • Strong analytical and communication skills as well as fluency in English, both written and spoken.

As a person, you have a high degree of independence and are result-oriented. You are able to set strategic directions and make highly impactful decisions based on effective communication and close collaboration across multiple functions. Strong stakeholder management skills and a solution-oriented approach are essential for successfully driving projects and tasks in a timely manner. Most importantly, you are a lifelong learner and welcome the opportunity to develop new skills and gain further experience in patient-focused drug development.

We are passionate about bringing the patients' perspectives at the heart of everything we do and are proud of our inclusive and learning team culture.
