Centralized Statistical Monitoring, Director

What you will do

Let’s do this. Let’s change the world. In this vital role you will provide strategic, statistical, technical, operational, and business leadership for Centralized Statistical Monitoring (CSM).

  • Serve as business owner for the CSM analysis system, partnering with Digital Technology and Statistical Programming on requirements, prioritization, SDLC activities, business validation, UAT, release readiness, lifecycle management, and continuous improvement.
  • Provide senior statistical and technical leadership for conventional and innovative CSM methodology, including signal development, site-level analytics, anomaly detection, risk indicators, signal thresholds, QTL-related approaches where applicable, and advanced statistical, machine learning, or AI-enabled approaches where appropriate.
  • Oversee statistical review, interpretation, documentation, and release of CSM signals across clinical studies, ensuring outputs are scientifically sound, traceable, inspection-ready, and useful for study quality oversight.
  • Partner with study teams, Global Statistical Leads, Global Development Operations, Data Management, Quality, RBQM, Digital Technology, and other stakeholders to support interpretation of CSM findings, issue escalation, and effective use of CSM outputs.
  • Lead, coach, and develop CSM statisticians and supporting resources, including Amgen and Functional Service Provider resources as appropriate. Direct line management responsibilities may be in scope depending on the final operating model.
  • Define and maintain CSM standards, guidance, training materials, operating procedures, and best practices to support consistent delivery, knowledge transfer, inspection readiness, and long-term sustainability.
