SNE/Scientific Specialist (Labelling)

Type of position: Seconded National Expert Job Type: 30 September 2024 at 23:59 CET

Type of position : Seconded National Expert 

Job title : SNE/Scientific Specialist (Labelling)

Deadline for applications : 30 September 2024 at 23:59 CET 

The European Medicines Agency is a decentralized body of the European Union with all its offices and Headquarters based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Its core responsibility is the protection and promotion of public health through the evaluation and supervision of medicines.

We are looking for National experts on secondment. This means staff from other European public-sector bodies can work at the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for short periods of time through the national expert on secondment (SNE) programme. The aim of this programme is to enhance and develop the relationship between European public administrations.

SNEs serve a dual role: they bring their expertise to EMA and take back to their home administration the knowledge acquired during their period of secondment. SNEs remain in the service of their employer. Secondment is not equivalent to employment, nor does it lead to employment by EMA. Periods of secondment may last between six months and two years. This is renewable once or more, up to a total of four years.

At the European Medicines Agency, you will provide your subject matter expertise in the review of product information (Summary of Product Characteristics, Labelling and Package leaflet) of medicinal products across the medicine life-cycle, contributing to the development support and evaluation activities. You will primarily provide regulatory and scientific support to the Quality Review of Documents (QRD) working group, bringing to their attention issues that require decision-making at a centralised level and coordinating their input in the review of the product information.
