PPD has been providing comprehensive pharmacovigilance (PV) services to the industry for more than 25 years, and currently employs over 1300 PV professionals globally.

Whilst most of our work to date has been delivered from our multiple “hub” locations throughout the world, we are now

looking to increase the number of smaller “spoke” locations to help us deliver local (in-country) PV services.

As a Safety Specialist you will be responsible for performing day-to-day PV activities within a highly regulated environment and driven by strict timelines, which may include but not be limited to monitoring for, collecting, translating, disseminating and tracking of safety information and serving as a regulatory authority contact point.

Your role may also include:

preparing for and attending meetings, audits and regulatory authority inspections.



This is an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to advance their affiliate PV career whilst gaining exposure to more headquarters PV activities in both the post-approval and clinical trial settings.
