Statistics Leader / Associate Director of Statistics

GSK Oncology is committed to discovering and developing new therapies with the potential to change the lives of patients with cancer. The Oncology Clinical Development Statistics group is seeking exceptionally talented Statisticians to provide end-to-end statistical leadership across oncology evidence generation—from early development through registration and lifecycle support—using innovative trial designs and modern statistical methods (including simulation, interim strategies, Bayesian approaches, and external/real-world data) to inform key development decisions.

For candidates seeking to be located at our Stevenage site, this role will temporarily be based at Stevenage. However, the Company plans to relocate its offices to Cambridge, UK. The location of this role will therefore subsequently change to Cambridge, UK in accordance with timelines to be set by the Company. The relocation is currently proposed to take effect by early 2029.

Key Responsibilities
This role will provide YOU the opportunity to lead key activities to progress YOUR career. These responsibilities include the following:

• Provide statistical leadership for oncology studies/indications, partnering with project and study teams to align strategy and execution

• Lead statistical strategy for study design, analysis, reporting, and interpretation, applying fit-for-purpose methods (e.g., simulation, interim strategies, Bayesian) to quantify uncertainty and inform decisions

• Author/review statistical sections of protocols, SAPs, clinical/regulatory documents, and presentations; communicate complex results clearly to non-statistical stakeholders

• Ensure high-quality, on-time deliverables and effective stakeholder management in a matrix environment

• Drive innovation in statistical methodology and data strategy, including appropriate use of external/real-world data to strengthen oncology evidence generation

• Build deep indication knowledge (e.g., regulatory expectations, competitor landscape) and influence asset strategy and regulatory submissions with rigorous statistical insight

• Represent Oncology Biostatistics externally as appropriate and may serve as project statistician for an oncology asset
