Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilance
At Clinical Professionals we have a consultant department that is solely focused on matching talented individuals to suitable drug safety and pharmacovigilance job vacancies within pharmaceutical, biotechnology and clinical service companies across Europe and the UK.
According to PIPA, the Pharmaceutical Information and Pharmacovigilance Association, pharmacovigilance is a highly specialised branch of pharmaceutics which focuses on:
| • | Identifying the adverse effects of pharmaceutical drugs |
| • | Assessing the risks and benefits of medicines |
| • | Determining ways to improve the safety of certain drugs |
| • | Providing information to users on using medicines safely and correctly |
| • | Monitoring the effects of any changes made on pharmaceuticals |
Because pharmacovigilance is so specialised, many companies provide separate roles for pharmacovigilance professionals.
We handle an entire spectrum of pharmacovigilance positions in the EU, including:
| • | Pharmacovigilance officer and assistant jobs for database entry, tracking and compliance |
| • | Scientist jobs for drug safety |
| • | Coordinators and case-processing specialist jobs |
| • | Senior pharmacovigilance associate jobs for handling Periodic Safety Update Reports (PSURs) |
| • | • Senior manager and director jobs for the strategic planning of pharmacovigilance departments, implementation of new systems and line management |
The consultants on our Drug Safety team are active members of PIPA and consistently attend the Association’s Annual Conferences and seminars. Our aim is to always stay abreast of the current industry issues, to optimise our knowledge, and provide valuable advice and assistance to jobseekers and clients alike.
