Programmers for clinical development
- Research & Development
- Denmark - Aalborg
Are you interested in working with biological data and would you like to be part of a future with a strong pipeline of products, which ensures huge variety of tasks, great opportunities for individual development and influence on decision making?
Do you wish to work in a highly professional, engaged and global environment, where you can use your programming skills and quality mindset bringing clinical projects to registration and market? You may be one of our new statistical programmers.
About the department
The Biostatistics function is growing and consists currently of 150 statisticians and statistical programmers globally in our R&D clinical development organisation. Biostatistics is a dynamic department which cooperates with many different areas in the organisation both within Denmark and across borders with our affiliates in the US, India, China and Japan, as well as our outsourcing partners in India. Biostatistics provides a strong scientific community and we are organised in smaller units for each clinical project to ensure close collaboration with our various stakeholders.
The job
As statistical programmer your primary responsibility is to develop SAS programs based on clinical data for reporting of clinical trials, preparing summary documents and publications as well as supporting regulatory commitments. You handle many assignments concurrently and will work in close collaboration with a team of statisticians and statistical programmers.
You will be involved in coordinating and supervising the work of contract houses around the world performing outsourced programming tasks. Therefore we expect you to communicate programming/technical problems and ideas both internally and externally, as well as coach more junior colleagues. You must take responsibility for both standard tasks and more complex and time critical tasks.
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 have a B.Sc. or M.Sc. within science, IT or other relevant degree, extensive knowledge and experience with the SAS programming language, as well as preferably experience within clinical research. You are able to write efficient, well documented and standardised computer programs. Furthermore, strong cooperation and analytical skills as well as an understanding for data structure are a necessity. You are capable of working independently, take on responsibility and show initiative.
We expect you to be independent and that you are flexible and efficient. In addition we expect you to be able to overview several challenging tasks in parallel without compromising the quality of your work and that you remain high spirited, also when things are moving fast. Experience with project management will be an advantage.
Good collaboration and communication skills are necessary characteristics. You are also fluent in English.
At Novo Nordisk we use our skills, dedication and ambition to help people with diabetes and change their lives. By working with us you will have the opportunity to do the same in a global business environment.
