International Medical Director in Endocrinology or Oncology – Novo Nordisk, Rare Diseases


An interesting role in drug development of rare endocrine disorders. Unique opportunity for a Medical Doctor with clinical and industry experience, who wants to drive innovative trial designs and participate in strategically prioritising a strong trial portfolio.

This role will take your extensive drug development experience to the next level as the dedicated lead of extremely ambitious, innovative projects. You will join a strong global project team with the goal of delivering best-in-class treatment to patients with rare endocrine disorders globally supporting the design and strategy from early to late phase including first in human studies and to contribute as medical expert to the implementation of translational strategy for the projects.

We are looking for one, who thrives with diverse cultures and in an entrepreneurial environment, working with a portfolio that can potentially make a great difference to many. The business area for Rare Diseases is growing rapidly, and investments are being made to attract and acquire interesting technology candidates at various stages of development.

Workplace can be from Copenhagen, a hybrid, or from another country, and where you will have the flexibility in travelling a few days monthly to Novo Nordisk’s global headquarter in Soeborg, outside of Copenhagen. Novo Nordisk can support with a mobility package if that is relevant.

The Organisation


You will join a highly collaborative and ambitious team of 16 MDs in Medical & Science Rare Diseases, who are responsible for clinical development in rare blood and endocrine disorders. Everyone in the team is on a transformative and exciting journey to expand into multiple new indications using the most advanced technology platforms such as mimetic bi-specific antibodies, RNAi and gene editing.

They are truly passionate in their work to help people with rare diseases and to work closely together with clinicians and patients to ensure that the therapeutic solutions optimally address their needs. Together with the Senior Director, to whom you report, you and the team divide the project portfolio between you based on an evaluation of the strategic priorities.

Your Role


To be successful, you balance a creative mindset and a collaborative team orientation with strong skills in running E2E processes that entail a high degree of complexity due to therapeutic solutions, number of stakeholders, global outlook, and a constant need for evaluating priorities and risks. You should thrive in navigating the many interdependencies of clinical development while facilitating clear communication and decision-making and;

  • ensuring medically sound regulatory interactions as well as driving learnings one step further into innovative implementation and simple execution.
  • evaluating and advising on how the objective behind the clinical trials is best executed based on prior experience about how trials work in the clinics.
  • initiating the development of biomarkers that can provide feedback on the feasibility in the trials.

Your job will be globally oriented and will require strong interactions with colleagues across Novo Nordisk and regional offices as well as with external stakeholders such as regulatory bodies, KOL’s, physicians, etc. You will enjoy great influence on the design of clinical trials that are part of business-critical programs.

Your Profile


We hope, you are a curious and dedicated individual, with a patient-centric mind-set, and one who actively expresses a proactive attitude despite challenges. In your interaction with others, you demonstrate a flair for building and using internal and external network(s) and share your learnings. You balance a high degree of independence with having a strong team spirit, and you are both confident in own skills, while also being appreciative of others’ competencies. Also, you can expect that the programs require focus as well as flexibility, because several tasks come from various stakeholders and managing their expectations is key to success.

Your Experience


Your qualifications include experience from drug development and medical/ research experience within the field of (rare) endocrine disorders or oncology, combined with clinical experience. Your other qualifications include:

  • University degree as a Medical Doctor (MD), and possibly a Ph.D. degree.
  • 3-5 years of clinical experience, having enabled you to understand clinical processes.
  • Research experience, experience as co-investigator, and / or medical expertise from the Pharma / Biotech industry.
  • Some experience from dealing with regulatory bodies, and with an understanding of how clinical documents are managed.
  • Fluency in English, in writing and verbally.
