Associate Director, Central Statistical Monitoring

About the role

Lead the Central Statistical Monitoring (CSM) team within the Global Statistics department to support the RBQM: providing statistical design, interpretation, and governance for monitoring activities that protect subject safety, ensure data integrity, and support trial reliability across BeOne’s clinical development portfolios.

Responsibilities

• Design and validate of monitoring analytics
• Develop and maintain statistical risk indicators (KRIs), anomaly detection methods, and monitoring tool appropriate for study purpose and data flows.
• Partner with study team to specify data derivations, edit checks, and analytic data snapshots required by CSM algorithms.
• Validate models and algorithms: assumptions, diagnostics, false positive/negative rates, sensitivity analyses, and reproducibility.
• Implement processes to detect candidate signals across sites, subjects, and data domains (safety, efficacy, conduct, data quality).
• Characterize signals by magnitude, specificity, temporal dynamics, covariate dependence, and uncertainty; provide quantitative rationale for prioritization.
• Define and apply confidence thresholds, tiering logic (e.g., high/medium/low), and criteria for automatic alerts versus human triage.
• Cross-functional Interpretation And Communication
• Translate statistical uncertainty and model assumptions into concrete, pragmatic next actions for operations and clinical follow-up for medical monitors.
• Co-design decision trees, playbooks mapping signal types to investigative workflows, escalation paths, and CAPA triggers.
• Ensure feedback loops: incorporate investigation outcomes (true/false/insufficient) to recalibrate models and to improve data collection or derivation rules.
• Participate in RBQM governance meetings to align statistical approaches with study risk tolerances and regulatory expectations.
• Develop and deliver training modules for clinical monitors, safety officers, DM staff, and study teams on interpreting CSM outputs and on required actions.
• Provide statistical support during audits/inspections and contribute to CAPA design when monitoring uncovers systemic issues.
• Act as a change agent: promote a risk-based mindset, help define governance criteria, and support SOP updates.
• Define KPIs for CSM effectiveness: time-to-investigation, confirmation rate, and downstream corrective actions.
• Monitor performance dashboards, conduct periodic reviews, and implement improvements to models, thresholds, and communication templates.
