Associate Director Quantitative Pharmacology

We are seeking a highly motivated Associate Director to join the Quantitative Pharmacology (QP) group. The Associate Director will lead model-informed drug development strategies supporting one or more therapeutic areas across modalities including antibodies, siRNA, and gene therapies. This role combines scientific depth with cross-functional leadership to inform dose selection, trial design, and regulatory strategy from early development through submission.

A day in the life of an Associate Director may look like:

• Driving model-informed development (MIDD) and pharmacometrics strategies in partnership with Clinical Pharmacology, Biostatistics, Clinical and Translational teams to support regulatory and clinical decision-making.

• Leading the QP evaluation of one or more assets, accountable for timely delivery of population PK/PD, exposure–response, and translational modeling analyses.

• Representing QP at program and governance meetings, communicating quantitative insights clearly to non-modeling audiences.

• Contributing to regulatory interactions and authoring key components of regulatory documents related to QP (e.g., IB, briefing books, etc.).

• Mentoring and developing junior scientists and fostering a culture of scientific rigor and collaboration.

• Identifying and implementing process improvements, new modeling approaches, and innovative quantitative tools to enhance efficiency and impact.

• Ensuring analyses and documentation are of the highest scientific quality and regulatory compliance.

This may be the right role for you if you:

• Want to make a visible impact on the organization by driving data-driven decisions that shape clinical and regulatory strategy.

• Thrive in multi-disciplinary environments, bridging discovery, clinical, and commercial teams.

• Communicate complex modeling concepts clearly and persuasively to diverse stakeholders.

• Have strong collaboration and leadership skills, influencing cross-functional teams without formal authority.

• Can independently design, execute, and oversee multiple modeling workstreams simultaneously.

To be considered for this role, you must have:

• PhD in Quantitative Pharmacology, Pharmacometrics, Engineering, or a related field with 6+ years of post-doctoral or industry experience; or MS with 9+ years of relevant experience.

• Demonstrated expertise in population PK/PD, exposure–response, or mechanistic modeling (systems biology, or QSP) using tools such as NONMEM, Monolix, Simulx, MATLAB/Simbiology and R.

• Proven track record of delivering analyses supporting regulatory submissions and engaging directly with agencies (e.g., FDA, EMA, PMDA).

• Hands-on experience with a broad range of quantitative and computational tools and a strong publication record.

• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and partner effectively across technical and non-technical teams.
