  • Regulatory Exclusivities: Familiarity with regulatory exclusivities such as data protection and market exclusivity for new pharmaceutical products in Canada, the US, and Europe (including new chemical entities), as well as other patent-related exclusivities like orphan drug designation, pediatric extension, CSPs, etc.
  • Bilingualism: Bilingual skills in French and English are essential given the interactions with international external partners.
  • Technical Skills: Ability to navigate patent databases (CIPO, USPTO, EPO-Patent Register, Espacenet, Orbit/Questel/Patsnap, or equivalent).
  • Soft Skills: Strong communication and problem-solving skills; ability to ask questions, approach clients' matters diligently, make complex ideas clear, stimulate creative thinking, and maintain integrity, professionalism, and high ethical standards.
