• Consult and advice in all technical, scientific and business aspects of Drug Discovery Services. • Facilitate leads (potential clients) to enhance the company business and also enhance the foot hold of the company in the pharma industry especially in Japan. • Strategic planning and business integration to capture the CRO market. • Selection, development and on-going improvements of the synthetic routes for intermediates and API. • Provide solutions for complex chemistry.

•Acted as the main line of communication between sponsor and investigator. •Supervised the CRA work team. Ensure compliance with SOP and ICH/FDA regulations. Collaborated with the regulatory team. •Carried-out the setting up of clinical investigation sites, including independent qualification, initiation, monitoring and closure visits in phase I-IV and observational clinical trials. •Planned, coordinated, implemented and managed clinical monitoring as indicated by the project team and project deadlines.

• I develop the synthesis of inorganic/organic hybrid materials based on aromatic phosphonic acid and I supervise two master students in the synthesis of P-O-B cages and also trithiocarbonates and other compounds that will be grafted into different inorganic moieties. • I take part in ALCA, a multidisciplinary and multi centre project to develop the next generation of Li batteries where I develop PEO based solid polymer electrolytes.

•Performed all types of site visits. Ensured that investigational product is handled locally according to regulations. •Troubleshot and resolved site related issues. Dealt with site financial agreements. Assisted the lead and project manager with any other study specific duties including IRB/REC clinical submissions. •Wrote and circulated monitoring reports. Maintained files of site records. •Provided site management and project coordination in Phase II – IV clinical trials and Medical Devices studies.

•Developed, validated and implemented HPLC, UPLC, UV and FTIR methods for the quality control analysis of generic hormonal products impacting all sales to the US market. • Responsible for sharing best practices and infusing learning across the entire organization including other countries. • Managed a team of three people and directed five projects running concurrently.

• Developed and maintained a constant supply of stock products for sale. We developed more complex molecules relative to our competitors and followed very strict in-house quality regulations. • Discovered innovative methods for synthesizing and developing new catalogue products by combining traditional methods with cutting edge technologies. • Designed and manufactured customized products for key clients. Proven ability to reduce the synthetic steps and increase the yields to customer satisfaction.
