What You'll Do

The Program Executive will provide end-to-end leadership for a program or multiple programs from pre-clinical through all stages of clinical development to patient access ensuring agility, speed, quality, and efficiency. You will be accountable for assembling the program vision and strategy for new assets entering full development and for driving the execution of the strategy for these assets. Through working cross-functionally, you will galvanize a cross-functional team to drive the assessment of target opportunities informed by scientific, regulatory, clinical, and commercial aspects.

You will help shape a competitive product profile to support the value story, impact to patients and market success. You will track progress, ensure clear goals and performance targets are in place, key milestones are met, proactively identify potential risks, create mitigation strategies where needed, and lead internal cross-functional progress updates. You will also hold sub-team leaders accountable for key deliverables. You will be responsible for enabling the collaboration across functional leadership and with external partner organizations, ensuring our program is properly resourced in close collaboration with Rx Development, Regulatory and Medical Affairs, and Patient Access functions. 

The Impact You Will Have

Are you bold enough?

Your work should matter and allow you the freedom to be 100% you. We spend too much time and effort in our career to not feel excited and proud about what we do and who we do it with. In other words, your career is too important for your next move to be just another job, so let’s work together to change the world and bring affordable medicines to all patients.

We aren’t about a bunch of empty slogans on a wall or words on a coffee cup – you can find that in lots of places. We are a culture of individuals with diverse backgrounds and personalities.
