What you will do

Let’s do this. Let’s change the world. Are you searching for a new, dynamic opportunity working with multiple teams to generate real world evidence supporting a wide variety of business needs? If so, we invite you to explore Amgen’s Center for Observational Research.

With a constantly growing demand for information from regulatory and reimbursement agencies, Observational Research (OR) is a critical component in drug development and commercialization. Amgen’s Center for Observational Research (CfOR) partners with internal and external teams to generate real world evidence for multiple partners across the entire product lifecycle. We generate evidence to inform the frequency, distribution, clinical burden, natural history, and clinical course of disease, the design of clinical trials, health resource utilization, drug utilization patterns, and the safety and effectiveness of our medicines.

In this vital role the Observational Research Senior Manager will be a member of the Bone team within CfOR and will be responsible for gathering insights and building collaborations and capabilities to advance the generation, use, and dissemination of real-world evidence (RWE) related to disease state epidemiology, treatment patterns, and medication safety and effectiveness to inform regulatory decision making and enhance access and use of Amgen’s medicines.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the design, generation and delivery of RWE evaluating the safety and effectiveness of medicines to inform regulatory decision making (e.g., label expansion/change) and fulfill regulatory requirements across the globe.
• Collaborate in the integrated evidence generation plan to align the conceptualization and design of RWE studies to the strategies and priorities of cross-functional partners.
• Negotiate with cross-functional partners and enhance the use of RWE that can substitute for and/or complement interventional studies to reduce the time and cost of drug development and answer key business questions.
• Facilitate the dissemination of RWE through publications, congress presentations, trainings, and development of scientific/promotional resources targeting a broad base of external partners (e.g., health care providers, payers, integrated delivery networks).
• Contribute to the development and implementation of innovative analytic methods, and leverage CfOR’s internal data and analytics capabilities and tools to enable rapid, scalable and reproducible RWE.
• Build external partnerships that can provide access to databases that can improve the quality and availability of real-world data in different patient populations and countries and facilitate execution of methodologically rigorous studies.
• Contribute to CfOR’s mission in progressing innovative epidemiological methods and analytical capabilities to support CfOR’s leadership role within Amgen and across industry.
