Post : Manager, External Affairs

Job Description
Day to day, that means:
• Drafting, reviewing, and maintaining PVAs and SAEMPs - the foundational agreements that keep our pharmacovigilance operations compliant and partner relationships running seamlessly
• Collaborating with global stakeholders across scientific, regulatory, and operational teams - you won't be siloed; you'll be sought after
• Applying your regulatory knowledge to keep processes sharp, compliant, and continuously improving
• Building genuine relationships with subject matter experts inside and outside Patient Safety - your network will grow fast here
• Working with industry-leading platforms like Veeva Vault and SharePoint - tools that will sharpen your digital toolkit

• Purposeful work, every day - The work you do directly supports BMS's mission to discover, develop, and deliver transformative medicines. You'll feel that connection - it's not abstract here.
