Scientific Officer - Referral Procedure CVMP

The European Medicines Agency is looking for a Scientific Officer who will provide scientific, regulatory, and procedural input and oversight relating to the safety, efficacy and quality aspects of veterinary medicines, specifically on referral procedures to the Agency’s Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products (CVMP).

EMA plays a central role in the authorisation and monitoring of human and veterinary medicines in the European Union (EU). Referral procedures are regulatory mechanisms used to conduct complex reviews—often related to safety—of the benefit-risk balance of veterinary medicines at EU level and to resolve divergences between Member States, with the aim of achieving a harmonised approach across the EU regulatory network.

The close-knit, highly specialised veterinary referrals team leads these procedures, consults the EMA Legal Department and the European Commission on regulatory matters, and ensures consistency with related areas for human medicines, where applicable.

The successful candidate will bring strong analytical acumen and the ability to translate complex scientific evidence into well-reasoned, practical solutions. You will have opportunities to communicate complex issues to different audiences, build consensus among diverse stakeholders and foster collaborative solutions in an international regulatory environment.
