At Roche you can show up as yourself, embraced for the unique qualities you bring. Our culture encourages personal expression, open dialogue, and genuine connections, where you are valued, accepted and respected for who you are, allowing you to thrive both personally and professionally. This is how we aim to prevent, stop and cure diseases and ensure everyone has access to healthcare today and for generations to come. Join Roche, where every voice matters. Imagine working for an organisation that focuses on putting people at the heart of what they do. Where every single person within the organisation is aligned to one main motivating force, that at the centre of everything they do, and their number one priority; patients. A place that gives every individual the autonomy and empowerment to make a difference, where you are not defined by a job title. Imagine waking up every morning feeling fulfilled, having purpose and meaning in your work. We are a pioneer in pharmaceuticals, advancing science to help people in the UK live longer and healthier lives. For over 120 years we have created truly differentiated medicines for cancer, the immune system, infectious diseases, ophthalmology and diseases of the central nervous system. We work from bench to bedside - researching new medicines, running global clinical trials, and collaborating with the NHS to try to ensure rapid uptake and delivery of our products and services. Our drive, every day, is to ensure our medicines reach those who need them as soon as possible. The Product Development Clinical Science department specializes in late stage global clinical development of molecules, conducting primarily Phase II/III clinical trials with a goal of characterizing the efficacy and safety profile of a molecule in a specific disease area, namely Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolism; Oncology/Hematology; Immunology; Ophthalmology; and Neuroscience. The purpose of the two-year Fellowship program, based at our Global Development site in Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire, is to provide a recent PhD graduate (completed or due to complete their post‑graduate academic studies imminently i.e. thesis submitted) with the opportunity to gain specialized, in‑depth training and experience in drug development at Roche, a global, research‑focused healthcare company. The successful candidates will gain valuable Phase II/III clinical development experience within the Product Development Clinical Science department. There is one Clinical Science Fellow position offered in our Neurodegeneration group (starting ~ January 2027). Fellows have the unique opportunity to shape the future clinical development in areas such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Patient safety and the development of effective medications for patient care is our primary goal at Roche. The priority of Product Development Clinical Science is to ensure that benefit outweighs risk and we are developing medications that are serving patients with a high unmet treatment need. The primary platform to develop these medications is through effective clinical trial design and execution. Depending on the stage of the program, the successful candidate may assist in (1) start‑up activities such as developing protocols, Informed Consent Forms (ICFs), Electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs) and engaging with study teams including vendor set‑up, (2) study execution activities such as responding to investigator/site/ethics/health authority questions, being responsible for ongoing medical data review, and oversight of protocol deviations and (3) study analysis activities such as data interpretation and authoring of documents e.g. Clinical Study Reports. The following are examples of activities the successful candidate will experience during the Fellowship program: • Develop an understanding of the products in the company pipeline and key business skills needed to work successfully in a global pharmaceutical company, • Interact with other Pharma Development functions in the Study Management Team meetings in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges of developing molecules into medicines, • Enhance scientific communication skills through internal presentations, medical congresses and professional meetings, • A possibility for short term experience in another Clinical Science therapeutic area or department such as Safety Science, Clinical Operations, Regulatory or Data Sciences, • Opportunity to network with current and previous Fellows in Clinical Science, for development support and knowledge sharing, • Develop soft skills e.g.networking, leadership and cross functional team work You are someone who wants to influence your own development and are looking for a company where you have the opportunity to experience clinical development through the eyes of the Clinical Science function to help guide you with future career choices.
