Hi,
You will get opportunities in small pharma companies, regulatory and drug safety consultancies and health authorities.
If you are starting your career in pharmacovigiance and your career goals are to work in risk management, the type of company that you start your career with can have a big impact on your ability to progress further down the line. If you do find yourself in a job with few opportunities, it might be time for you to consider moving to another company that will enable you to gain the necessary skills and experience that you will need to progress. This might seem like a sideways move at first, but in the long term it will open greater opportunities for you.
