Are you ready to follow the science and make a difference? As a Global Study Associate Director (GSAD) at AstraZeneca, you will be at the forefront of our mission to push the boundaries of science and deliver life-changing medicines. This role is a key player within our Study Management, BioPharmaceuticals Clinical Operations team, responsible for leading a cross-functional study team and providing direction and guidance for successful study delivery. You will be the main liaison between the study team and the Clinical Program Team (CPT), ensuring the delivery of a study according to agreed upon timelines, budget, and quality standards. This is your chance to be part of a team that is not just about doing things differently, but doing what has never been done before.

May participate in vendor selection activities.
- Develop and maintain relevant study plans including required input into study level quality and risk management planning (e.g., risk-based quality management, proactive risk and contingency plans, etc.) ensuring that the risk response strategies and issue escalation pathways are clear to the entire study team
- Accountable for ensuring that information in all systems utilized at a study-level (e.g. ACCORD/ABACUS, PharmaCM, etc.) are current and accurate.
- Oversee study level performance against agreed upon plans, milestones and key performance indicators (KPIs, quality and operational) by using company tracking systems and project timelines and communicate any risks to timelines and/or quality to CPT and sDSM/DSM along with proposed mitigations
- Identify and report quality issues that have occurred within the study in accordance with relevant AZ SOP and collaborate with all functions as necessary to overcome barriers and achieve milestones; proactively communicate findings and corrective action plans (CAPAs) to relevant stakeholders (e.g. CPT, quality assurance staff, functional line management, etc.)
- Oversee Trial Master File (TMF) completion in accordance with relevant AZ SOPs, including ensuring the TMF plan and Expected Document List (EDL) are in place and that QC activities are performed on an ongoing basis to ensure TMF completeness at all times
- Ensure timely compliance with company-wide governance controls (e.g., Delegation of Authority, Sunshine Act, financial system attestations, Clinical Trial Transparency)
- The GSAD is responsible for study budget re-forecasting following initial budget estimate provided by the CPT and accountable for study budget management through the study lifecycle and for providing budget progress reports to the CPT including any financial risks and mitigation plans (as part of the ongoing study change control process)
- Ensure studies are inspection-ready at all times, according to ICH-GCP and AZ SOP and relevant policies/guidelines; GSAD is the primary Study Management point-of-contact in the event of an audit or inspection
- Provide regular feedback on individual performance to the study team members and their line managers to support their professional development; may mentor less experienced colleagues
