1 day ago

Cambridge, United Kingdom AstraZeneca Full time

AstraZeneca discovers and develops medicines in 4 core areas of Oncology, Respiratory and Immunology (R&I), and Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolic Disease (CVRM). We are looking for a trainee Project Toxicologist to join our organization and make key contributions to the non-clinical safety of our R&D pipeline and marketed products. You will have the opportunity to work at the forefront of toxicology and safety science, working in a multidisciplinary environment you will learn how our safety science supports the progression of our rich and diverse pipeline. You will develop experience in toxicology and drug development as well as communication and interpersonal skills to communicate complex data with internal and external stakeholders.

CPSS is a diverse international department with Project Toxicologists based at several AstraZeneca sites (Gothenburg [Sweden], Gaithersburg and Boston [US] and Cambridge [UK]). For this recruitment the focus is to identify a trainee Project Toxicologist into our Cambridge or Gothenburg sites.

**As a trainee Project Toxicologist, your main responsibilities will be to**:

- Work with our late stage strategic toxicology lead, dealing with critical issues in our R&D pipeline and marketed products
- Build experience of earlier stage project assets and support delivery of non-clinical safety risk assessments
- Learning the Project Toxicologist role.

**Ultimately as Project Toxicologist your responsibilities will be to**:

- Exploring drug project safety risks and developing risk mitigation strategies by combining data from traditional toxicological methods with data from cutting edge in vitro model systems, ‘omics techniques, advanced imaging technologies, and computational tools to build understanding and formulate risk benefit analyses
- Deliver quality nonclinical summaries and other high-level regulatory documents for internal decision-making bodies and external health authorities.
- Leading the toxicology input to AstraZeneca project teams and interacting with external health authorities. You will operate across international boundaries within CPSS and across R&D functions in AstraZeneca to lead and manage projects and stakeholders.
- Providing specialist nonclinical expertise for evaluation of in-licensing and out-licensing opportunities.
- Contributing to the delivery of the departmental strategy and objectives.

**Requirements**:

- Strong interpersonal skills and a willingness to learn
- An ability to collaborate and operate with sensitivity and flexibility in a matrix project environment.
- A social personality with strong inter-personal skills that contributes to our team culture in which trust, cooperative support, diversity and inclusion enable engaged and motivated colleagues to deliver and develop
- Willingness to challenge conventional thinking and implement creative ideas balanced with a high regard and understanding for the regulatory framework in which AstraZeneca operates

In CPSS we aim to stimulate continued creativity throughout our organisation by maintaining a culture in which our people feel valued, energised and rewarded for their ideas and contribution to our success. And we support and encourage our people in discovering their own potential, through excellent learning and development opportunities that are available to them throughout their careers.
