You will share responsibility for guiding a lead drug candidate through preclinical development. You will be responsible for overseeing all outsourced non-clinical GLP and other IND-enabling studies with contract research organizations (CROs), including reviewing study protocols/reports and monitoring all studies to ensure they are conducted in compliance with appropriate regulations. The successful candidate will be a critical thinker excited by cutting-edge science in the field of immunology, and must have earned a PhD and generated a strong record of scientific achievement in a relevant field. You have 7 or more years of experience in an industry setting and have proven success driving preclinical projects through to IND status. You have been responsible for identifying, selecting, and managing CROs for various aspects of preclinical development, such as toxicology, and you are familiar with GLP and regulatory guidelines pertaining to a preclinical research program.
