GSK is a place where outstanding people do amazing things. As a science-led global healthcare company, we exist to help people do more, feel better, live longer. Our goal is to be one of the most innovative, best performing, and trusted healthcare companies.

This is an exciting opportunity to channel your passion for Innovation in the field of Statistics and Data Science to help shape the future of the Biostatistics function and transform the way in which GSK uses data and quantitative thinking to drive decision-making in R&D.

Why join The Statistics & Data Science Innovation Hub?

We are looking for an entrepreneurial statistician/data scientist to join us as Head of Data Science Innovation for R&D Operations to lead this pillar and help us supercharge quantitative decision-making across R&D.

The goal for this pillar is to help GSK make more informed operational and financial decisions, by developing and deploying high-value predictive analytics models based on historical and real-time data.

Furthermore, our ultimate vision is to interconnect and amplify current data and modelling initiatives across scientific and operations dimensions, fundamentally transforming and accelerating the landscape of medicine development by creating a framework to enable the consistent and scalable use of data and models across R&D.
