Medical Assessor - New Zealand Pharmacovigilance Centre

at  The University of Otago

YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE/KĀ PŪKEKA ME KĀ WHEAKO

You will be a clinician with current, or very recent clinical practice experience registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand in General Practice or another relevant medical specialty.

This opportunity could suit a practicing clinician seeking career diversity.
As a Medical Assessor, you will be able to apply your clinical knowledge of medicine and pharmacology/vaccinology to reviewing clinical reports of adverse events to determine the likelihood of any causal association. This forms part of the report record in our national database and underpins pharmacovigilance.
Your contribution to these pharmacovigilance activities through individual report review or database analysis, will support identifying events, or patterns of events of concern that may inform regulatory action, prescribing advice or education.
