Medical Adviser or Director

We are currently looking for a physician to join Medical Affairs at our headquarters in Copenhagen.

A unique medical position with key impact on drug development
We are offering a unique position with key impact on drug development within an internationally recognized team of researchers. You will be everything but an ordinary Medical Adviser or Director. In fact, you will become a cornerstone in our drug development process and help lay the medical foundation for the company’s global work while working closely together with leading researchers around the world. The position will continuously accelerate your professional and personal development and place you at the very forefront of biomedical drug development.

You will participate with various tasks throughout the drug development process, including validation of potential new molecular targets and you will provide medical input to the pre-clinical development of the target drug to ensure selection of the right antibody for our clinical development. You will also provide medical input to the development and design of our clinical protocols and drug development plans and act as Medical Officer throughout the trials. You will be responsible for supervision of the different CROs handling our clinical trials.

Influence, development and work-life balance
It is essential that you are a Medical Doctor. You may hold a PhD and it will be a plus if you are a specialist in hematology, oncology or internal medicine. You should have biological insight and you may have drug development experience from your previous positions at a university, a hospital, in the pharmaceutical industry or the like.

You are keen to take on a large responsibility and set your mark on the development of ground breaking biomedical products. Last but not least, you must be a strong communicator with excellent social skills and have an open mind, as teamwork, knowledge sharing and innovation are the keys to our success.

A promising future and a short chain of command
Genmab is a fairly small biotech company with a short chain of command, so you will have a great opportunity to influence your own work as well as your personal and professional development. You will also have flexible working hours and conditions. With a solid financial basis due to our partnerships with a.o. Lundbeck, Roche and GlaxoSmithKline combined with our pipeline of potential products, we have a promising future.

The deadline is January 9th 2011.
