About the role

The Opportunity

As the Senior Associate/Associate Director of Portfolio and Strategy Operations, you will help ensure flawless operation of activities for a first-in-class program as it moves through clinical development while reporting to the Director of Portfolio Strategy and Operations.

  • You thrive operating in a matrixed role and seamlessly facilitate cross functional discussions to drive towards shared goals and program progression.
  • You will help to update and refine processes to support the team achieving key deliverables. You will also help steer content for leadership and external KOL meetings.
  • You are someone who has the communication chops to build narratives, craft visuals, refine messaging and tell compelling stories as we communicate progress back to the Executive Leadership Team and Board.
  • You are critical to the management and maintenance of the project long-range strategic plan, in close collaboration with your project team colleagues.

Your Background
