Why Patients Need You

　　Pfizer's purpose is to deliver breakthroughs that change patients' lives. Research and Development is at the heart of fulfilling Pfizer's purpose as we work to translate advanced science and technologies into the therapies that matter most. You will apply your skills to accelerate and bring the best-in-class small molecule medicines to patients around the world.

　　What You Will Achieve

　　As a Senior Scientist, you will be at the center of our operations and you'll find that everything we do, every day, is in line with an unwavering commitment to quality. You will be recognized as a technical expert and a scientific contributor. With your deep knowledge of the discipline, you will be an active team member whose decisions impact the project. Your creativity in developing new ideas will be used frequently. You will undertake mentoring activities to guide other team members.

　　The key purpose of this position is to support and influence the early candidate substrate from a physical chemical, drug delivery and bioperformance perspective through close collaboration with partners on the Research Project Teams and in Pharmaceutical Science. You will need to act as a pharmaceutical science subject matter expert to inform, educate and influence Discovery teams in finding NCEs with desirable drug delivery and performance properties. This role will include assessment of in silico, in vitro and in vivo data as well as design of stage appropriate formulations for preclinical studies. An awareness of later stage development needs as well as an understanding of the disease state and biology will help to enable the definition of the required design elements.

　　This position will interface with multidisciplinary teams and work closely with colleagues in Medicinal Chemistry, Biology, Drug Safety and Pharmacokinetics Dynamics & Metabolism. Strong relationships with Clinical, Analytical, Materials Science and late-stage clinical formulation colleagues are also expected.

　　It is your hard work and dedication that will make Pfizer ready to achieve new milestones and help patients across the globe.
