You can be involved in a wide range of statistical assignments, such as providing input to clinical development plans, clinical trial protocols, summary documents and publications. Furthermore, you present and provide statistical interpretation of results, both internally and externally. You handle many assignments concurrently and will work in close collaboration with a team of statisticians and statistical programmers.
You will interact in cross disciplinary development teams across country borders and communicate statistical issues and ideas to non-statisticians. You can be involved in coaching of more junior colleagues and be responsible for coordinating and supervising the work of contract houses around the world performing outsourced tasks. Therefore we expect you to be able to communicate statistical problems and ideas clearly.
Development of methods and processes, as well as knowledge sharing is continuously on-going in Novo Nordisk, especially based on the initiative of the employees. We expect you to take part in the maintenance of Biostatistics as a good and challenging place to work. In exchange we of course offer great opportunities for on-going training to ensure the continued competency development of our employees.
Qualifications

You work independently, take on responsibility and show initiative. You are flexible and efficient and able to handle several challenging tasks in parallel without compromising the quality of your work. We expect that you remain high spirited, also when things are moving fast. Experience with project management is an advantage.
You have good collaboration and communication skills and are fluent in English.
