The Senior Safety Scientist provides crucial scientific and strategic expertise for clinical development programs, focusing heavily on compound-level safety surveillance and risk management. Daily tasks involve leading the preparation of periodic safety reports (such as DSURs), conducting safety database analyses, and authoring critical trial-related documentation, including Safety Management Plans and structured Benefit-Risk Assessments. The role requires partnering closely with safety physicians to review clinical trial protocols and statistical outputs, and acting as the primary scientific point of contact for clinical safety teams.
