Popis:

At the Medical Products Agency, we make a difference together. In life and for life. We work for the health of people and animals, for a better Sweden today and in the future. Are you a statistician who wants to influence pharmaceutical work in Sweden and Europe? Then this might be something for you! Our Operations The Authorization Operations area works in several ways to ensure that appropriate medicines reach patients. Approvals of new medicines and new indications, as well as safety monitoring of approved products, are central parts. Advisory services regarding pharmaceutical development and information about medicines are other important parts. The operations area has approximately 300 employees and is divided into several units where the Efficacy and Safety units evaluate documentation regarding the efficacy and safety of medicines. The investigations and recommendations we make form the basis for decisions on whether a medicine should be approved for clinical use. We cooperate with other EU member states in investigation work and actively contribute to committees and working groups within the European Medicines Agency EMA. We also work closely with other parts of the Medical Products Agency. We now need a new colleague for the statistics group. The group is responsible for, among other things, statistical evaluation of the efficacy and safety of medicines. The statistics group also plays an important role in collaborating with other parts of the agency on biostatistical issues and monitoring of medicine use.

This occurs in collaboration between national medicines authorities in Europe and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). You will also work with scientific advice, primarily to pharmaceutical companies but sometimes also to individual research groups. The tasks also include methodological assessment of trial protocols for planned clinical trials for medicines and medical devices. Furthermore, consulting tasks in statistical methodology issues that arise within other operations areas of the Medical Products Agency are included. Additionally, developing new requirements and guidelines for pharmaceutical development may be part of the role. As a statistician at the Medical Products Agency, you, together with other investigators, have an important role in decisions about which medicines may be used in the EU.

Your Background You have higher education comprising at least a bachelor's degree, preferably a master's degree, in statistics/mathematical statistics or equivalent, and have good knowledge in biostatistics acquired through relevant professional experience. You have experience interpreting data from clinical studies and practical experience with statistical analysis. You have very good knowledge of Swedish and English in speech and writing. Professional experience from the pharmaceutical industry, CRO (contract research organization), and/or medicines authorities is a merit, as is a doctorate in an area that the Medical Products Agency considers relevant.
