Global Development Medical Director, Late Respiratory and Immunology Clinical Development

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Role description: As a Global Development Medical Director, you will support the clinical project team and assist the Global Clinical Project Leader and Global Clinical Head with the design & interpretation process, establishing clear design objectives for clinical programs and studies. Provide medical input into core labelling texts and medical support for commercial activities, support for medical monitoring of clinical studies.

This includes design, delivery and interpretation of pivotal clinical trials and of studies that further characterize overall benefit and risk and value of Respiratory and Immunology products in late-stage development. Work in BioPharmaceuticals R&D, Late-stage Development, Respiratory & Immunology function, truly international environment, opportunities to meet external experts, other medical colleagues, basic science, commercial and regulatory functions. Therapy area aligned groups provide clinical guidance and scientific leadership. Global Development Medical Director will work in wide range of aspects in pharmaceutical medicine, due to global responsibilities, many contacts with health authorities, colleagues and marketing companies within AstraZeneca. Opportunity to take on challenges of clinical development in group of positive, focused, highly motivated colleagues. - What You Will Do (list of duties): - Be involved in providing medical and scientific leadership in the global development of new medicines targeted at indications in the field of respiratory diseases and wider range of immunological disorders - Have an important role providing medical and scientific leadership in the innovative design, execution and interpretation of clinical trials in one or more development programs. - Build strong relationships with a network of external scientific experts. - Work closely with colleagues in other functions including Patient Safety, Regulatory Affairs, and Clinical Operations. - Be involved primarily in late stage (Ph2b and later) clinical programs while also collaborating with clinical colleagues supporting Early (R&I) stage programs and medical affairs. - Lead and contribute to medical monitoring of trials - Provide expert medical input into the preparation of regulatory documents and interactions with regulatory authorities. - Provide expert medical and scientific analysis and interpretation of data from ongoing studies and in the literature. - Develop and review protocols, informed consent, investigator’s brochure and other clinical development documents. - Participate in the preparation of scientific publications and presentations at scientific meetings and congresses. - Basic Qualifications: - MD or MD/PhD - 3+ years of pharmaceutical industry experience - 3+ years of clinical research experience in the academic or clinical practice setting - Demonstrated partnership and collaboration skills, including acting as the leader and clearly communicating across countries and cultures - Fluent in oral and written English, with good presentation skills and effective communication - Desired Qualifications: - Pulmonary medicine, Immunology, Rheumatology, Allergy, or Dermatology background is desirable. - Pay: The annual base pay for this position ranges from $241,613 – $362,420 USD. Base pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. In addition, our positions offer a short-term incentive bonus opportunity; eligibility to participate in our equity-based long-term incentive program. - Benefits: Benefits offered included a qualified retirement program [401(k) plan]; paid vacation and holidays; paid leaves; and, health benefits including medical, prescription drug, dental, and vision coverage in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable plans. Additional details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment. - Schedule: "When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility." So schedule: minimum three days per week in office, flexible. - Other content: "If hired, employee will be in an “at-will position” and the Company reserves the right to modify base pay (as well as any other discretionary payment or compensation program) at any time, including for reasons related to individual performance, Company or individual department/team performance, and market factors." This is boilerplate legal; we should remove. - "Date Posted 01-Sept-2026 Closing Date 30-Nov-2026" - metadata, can be folded into short p or dropped. According to instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. So we can include a short p with posting dates. - "Our mission is to build an inclusive environment where equal employment opportunities are available to all applicants and employees. In furtherance of that mission, we welcome and consider applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of their protected characteristics. If you have a disability or special need that requires accommodation, please complete the corresponding section in the application form." This is EEO boilerplate; remove. - "Join us in our unique and bold world." maybe part of marketing; but it's not boilerplate? Might be considered fluff but could be kept as part of description? It's not a list; but it's not substantive detail. Might be considered filler. Probably safe to drop. - "When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility." This is schedule content; we keep. Now decide sections. We have: - About the role (intro paragraph) - Responsibilities (list of duties) - Requirements (maybe combine Basic Qualifications and Desired Qualifications? Could have Requirements section with basic qualifications, and Skills maybe? But we have Qualifications and Skills sections possible. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have multiple sections. We need to decide which sections have substantive content. - About the role: we have introductory paragraph describing role. Good. - Responsibilities: we have list of duties (What You Will Do). Good. - Requirements: could contain Basic Qualifications (mandatory) and maybe Desired Qualifications? But Desired Qualifications could go under Skills or Qualifications. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we have headings list; we can choose to include only those with content. We have: - Basic Qualifications (mandatory) - Desired Qualifications (nice-to-have) We could put both under "Requirements" heading, with sub-lists? But we must use

  • for any list. Could have two lists: one for Required, one for Preferred. Or we could have "Requirements" for basic qualifications and "Skills" for desired qualifications. However, desired qualifications are more about background (pulmonary medicine etc.) which could be considered Skills or Qualifications. Given we want few sections, maybe we do: - About the role (p) - Responsibilities (ul) - Requirements (ul) covering basic qualifications - Qualifications (ul) covering desired qualifications? Or maybe combine. But we also have Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could omit Qualifications if we put desired under Requirements as "Preferred qualifications". But the instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It's okay to omit some. We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. Now format:

    About the role

    ...

    Responsibilities

    Requirements

    • 3+ years of pharmaceutical industry experience

    • Demonstrated partnership and collaboration skills, including acting as the leader and clearly communicating across countries and cultures
    • Fluent in oral and written English, with good presentation skills and effective communication
    Maybe also include "Desired Qualifications" as a separate

    Skills

    or

    Qualifications

    . Let's decide: Use

    Skills

    for desired qualifications (pulmonary medicine, immunology, rheumatology, allergy, or dermatology background is desirable). That's a single item; could be a

    but better as

    • . But we want few sections; maybe we can incorporate desired qualifications into Requirements as a second list with a note "Preferred". However, we must not invent content; we can add a note like "Preferred qualifications:" but that's adding text not in original? It's okay to summarize? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Adding a label "Preferred qualifications:" is not inventing info, it's just labeling; but could be considered adding. Safer to keep as separate section. Thus we have:

      Skills

      • Pulmonary medicine, Immunology, Rheumatology, Allergy, or Dermatology background is desirable.

      We work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office, with flexibility to balance in‑office expectations while respecting individual flexibility.

      We could also include posting dates as a short p at top or bottom. The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

      or drop it. Let's include a short p at the beginning:

      Posted: 01‑Sept‑2026 – Closing: 30‑Nov‑2026

      . That's minor metadata. Now ensure we didn't repeat job title as heading. We didn't. Check for any boilerplate left: we removed EEO, at-will, mission statement, etc. Also removed "Join us in our unique and bold world." and "When we put unexpected teams..." we kept schedule part but
