Sanofi's ambition is to become the leading Immunology company in the coming years. With 12 potential breakthrough medicines and vaccines leveraging our strength in Immunoscience and an unprecedented number of active phase 3 projects in 2025, Sanofi's Specialty Care Immunology team is rapidly expanding. Specialty Care Medical Affairs have a vision to be the leaders in patient and scientific knowledge and insights to improve clinical care. We do this by generating and curating the most critical patient and scientific evidence and by being highly credible partners shaping scientific exchange and engagement. We serve as key strategic partners for commercial, regulatory, R&D, market access and external affairs to develop and launch first in class and best in class therapeutic solutions that address highest unmet needs. The Director for Medical Evidence Innovation in the Next-Gen Immunology franchise will serve as a subject matter expert in designing, conducting, and communicating studies that translate large datasets from existing registries and claims databases into meaningful insights. These insights will help inform and add value in shaping medical, clinical and commercial strategies. The candidate will lead efforts in sophisticated real-world evidence (RWE) studies, with a particular focus on claims data analysis, to generate valuable insights that inform critical decision-making across the organization. Additionally, the successful candidate will oversee and support extensive data analyses from existing registries, clinical trial programs, real-world data, and epidemiological studies relevant to Next-Gen Immunology disease areas of interest. Reporting directly to the Global Medical Evidence Generation Lead of the Next-Gen Immunology Franchise, the Medical Director will also be responsible for providing strategic insights and oversee operational excellence in aforementioned study types. Responsibilities include regularly updating Integrated Evidence Generation Plans (IEGPs) and implementing tactical activities across various disease areas based on these plans, with a particular focus on leveraging existing real-world datasets and claim databases to generate valuable insights for critical decision-making. The Medical Director will collaborate with internal experts from Global and Local Medical, Clinical Development, and Regulatory teams to develop, prioritize, and execute study design and analytical activities. The ideal candidate will contribute significantly to the strategic planning for IEGPs, scientific communications, and medical education related to disease areas, patient unmet needs, and study outcomes. Additionally, the candidate will be accountable for performing, quality-checking, and refining real-world and claims database analyses, as well as explaining and interpreting findings for internal colleagues, management, and external stakeholders. This position requires a matrix team leader who takes a hands-on approach. Successful collaboration across cross-functional stakeholders is essential for this role, necessitating excellent communication skills and comfort working with non-co-located colleagues.
