Join IQVIA’s Pharmacovigilance team in Italy and take ownership of client-facing safety projects that help protect patients and support compliance. This is a great opportunity for an experienced PV professional who enjoys working independently, partnering directly with clients, and acting as a senior point of contact within a small, collaborative team.

As a Pharmacovigilance Consultant, you will deliver end-to-end PV activities across a portfolio of client projects, primarily supporting Italian clients (with occasional scope across other European affiliates depending on client needs). You will operate with a high degree of independence, maintain strong client relationships, and contribute as a senior reference point within the PV team.

Key responsibilities include:

• Deliver Pharmacovigilance activities on complex projects, including AE/ADR/SUSAR processing and EudraVigilance monitoring, and preparation of PV deliverables (e.g., PSUR/PSMF/DSUR and related documentation).
• Perform local signal detection activities (primarily for Italian affiliates).
• Act as a client-facing PV contact (including participation in meetings and confident communication on project topics).
• Ensure compliance with PV procedures and regulatory requirements, including audit/inspection readiness support when needed.
• Provide guidance and informal mentoring to junior colleagues and contribute to internal PV training activities.
• Collaborate with Regulatory Affairs colleagues during peak periods, supporting cross-functional delivery as appropriate.
• Prepare and deliver short client presentations as part of project delivery (and during the interview process, you may be asked to present briefly on a PV topic or your experience).

Qualifications

To be successful, you will bring:

• 4+ years of Pharmacovigilance experience with the ability to work independently on client projects (experience in pharma or consulting/CRO environments is welcome).
• Strong knowledge of Italian and EU PV legislation/procedures and familiarity with PV tools/systems such as MedDRA, EudraVigilance and literature searching (e.g., PubMed).
• Proven client-facing communication skills, including the ability to present and discuss PV topics clearly.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities across several concurrent projects.
• Fluent Italian (mandatory) and good working English (written and spoken) – at IQVIA we communicate in English.
• Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences or related discipline (Master’s preferred).
