Your mission

As US Director Regulatory Affairs, you will develop and execute regulatory strategies to advance our anti-infective portfolio through all stages of development (early to late phase). As a member of the regulatory affairs team, your key responsibilities will be to support/co-lead the NDA for our most advanced asset in close collaboration with the cross-functional Pritelivir project team.
