Career AreasWe work closely with colleagues in scientific and commercial teams, supporting the development of new drugs and also maintaining marketing licences worldwide. The main focus of our work is the submission and approval of innovative, effective medicines that make a difference in the lives of patients.
Regulatory Affairs is part of R&D’s Global Medicines Development function. We have 425 people, based at AstraZeneca sites in Mölndal, Sodertalje, Alderley Park and Wilmington, plus a team of regulatory professionals in Osaka, Japan.
Our remit is truly global and cross-functional. The breadth of our work means the team here includes people from all sorts of backgrounds and with varying skill sets. At any time, we will be helping to compile application files and coordinating the contributions from different functions, as well as devising regulatory strategies that will enable us to optimise the value of new and existing products.
