The Data Operations & Access Management Specialist provides support across a broad range of business management, data integrity, access governance, and operational reporting activities. The team ensures data consistency, system hygiene, compliance with internal controls, and timely reporting across multiple business processes.
You will join our Pharmaceutical business and gain exposure to business operations, data governance, reporting, analytics, and cross-functional stakeholder management. As part of the Global Medical Safety (GMS) organisation, this role also provides visibility into several pharmacovigilance‑adjacent activities, including data quality processes, safety‑related reporting, and interactions with global safety systems. While the position does not require prior pharmacovigilance knowledge, students will gain indirect exposure to PV operations and supporting activities that contribute to patient safety.
