Legal Director – Canada
Job Description
Description
At Regeneron, we believe that when the right idea finds the right team, powerful change is possible. As we work across our growing global network to invent, develop and commercialize life-transforming medicines for people with serious diseases, we’re establishing new ways to think about science, manufacturing and commercialisation. We are Regeneron, a groundbreaking biotechnology company, and we’re looking for a dedicated Legal Director to join our team in Mississauga. As we expand our operations in North America, this role is essential in helping us commercialize and distribute our pharmaceutical products across Canada and other ex-US countries.
A Typical Day:
-
Oversee all legal matters for our rapidly growing Canadian affiliate and managing the relationship with external counsel.
-
Provide strategic legal advice on commercialization and regulatory issues in Canada.
-
Manage legal investigations related to competition, regulatory, and anti-corruption laws.
-
Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial and R&D agreements.
-
Advise on privacy, compliance, employment, and corporate governance matters.
-
Collaborate with the home office Law Department on cross-functional legal issues.
-
Contribute to the Canadian Leadership Team and provide legal advice for US as needed.
This Role May Be For You If:
-
You have a strong understanding of the pharmaceutical industry’s regulations and practices.
-
You thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy working on cross-functional teams.
-
You are adept at managing complex legal matters and have a keen eye for detail.
-
You can communicate effectively in both French and English.
To Be Considered:
Candidates must hold a Canadian law degree from a leading university and have significant legal experience in the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry. Applicants will require 8-10 years of legal experience in the biotech/pharma sector in Canada. A license to practice law in the US or another jurisdiction is a plus, along with experience in a top law firm. Familiarity with local or North American regulators and experience working in the US are beneficial.
