Job Description:
Executive Director, Clinical Sciences
at Keros Therapeutics
(View all jobs)
Lexington, MA (Hybrid)
Keros Therapeutics is a public, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical
company focused on the discovery, development, and
commercialization of novel treatments for patients suffering from
hematological and musculoskeletal disorders with high unmet medical
need. We are a leader in understanding the role of the transforming
growth factor-beta, or TGF-, family of proteins, which are master
regulators of red blood cell and platelet production as well as of
the growth, repair and maintenance of muscle and bone. We have
leveraged this understanding and developed a discovery approach to
generate large and small molecules to address diseases of these
tissues. Targeting TGF- signaling pathways has been clinically
proven to elicit robust changes in blood cells, muscle, and bone,
which we believe provides a precedent and strong rationale for our
strategy.
Reporting to the SVP of Clinical Development, the Executive
Director, Clinical Sciences will serve as the leader of the
Clinical Sciences group and will directly supervise the company's
Clinical Scientists. In addition, she/he will serve as the lead
Clinical Scientist for the KER-050 program in myelodysplastic
syndromes (MDS) and myelofibrosis (MF), including strategic
planning and implementation. She/he will represent the KER-050
development team with key internal and external stakeholders to
support clinical studies from protocol development through study
execution and completion of study reports. The Executive Director
will collaborate with cross-functional team members, including
Clinical Development, Clinical Operations, Program Management,
Biostatistics and Data Management, Safety and Pharmacovigilance,
DMPK/Clinical Pharmacology and CRO partners. This position is based
in the company's Lexington office and requires some domestic and
international travel.

released from active duty because of a service-connected
disability.
A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the
three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge
or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or
air service.
An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran
who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or
air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which
a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by
the Department of Defense.

serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air
service, participated in a United States military operation for

Why are you being asked to complete this form?
We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us
to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with
disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers
as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our
progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and
employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People
can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every
five years.
Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose
to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring
decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your
answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more
about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor's
Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at
www.dol.gov/ofccp.
How do you know if you have a disability?
A disability is a condition that substantially limits one or more
of your "major life activities." If you have or have ever had such
a condition, you are a person with a disability. Disabilities
