    • Partner with Clinical and Supply Chain teams to forecast demand and ensure timely supply of investigational medicinal products (IMPs).
    • Oversee GMP manufacturing activities at CDMOs for clinical and commercial batches, including establishment and deployment of continuous process verification (CPV) programs for drug product.
    • Support CMC regulatory submissions (e.g., INDs and NDAs) by contributing high-quality, submission-ready drug product sections and associated development documentation.
    • Oversee CRO and CDMO activities to ensure compliance with cGMPs, FDA and ICH guidelines, internal SOPs, and applicable global regulatory requirements.
    • Build and maintain strong internal and external development networks, including CROs, CDMOs, and academic collaborators; prepare and deliver technical presentations at internal forums and external scientific or industry conferences.
    Qualifications:
    • Ph.D. or M.S. in Pharmaceutics, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related discipline.
    • Minimum of 12 years of experience in drug product development within the biotech or pharmaceutical industry, with demonstrated application of cGMP principles.

    • Experience with conventional and advanced drug product packaging technologies, including primary and secondary packaging systems, to support clinical and commercial supply.
    • Demonstrated ability to critically evaluate complex analytical and development data and to troubleshoot formulation, process, and manufacturing challenges.
    • Proven track record of working with and managing CROs and CDMOs to support development, scale-up, and GMP manufacturing activities.
    • Experience preparing and delivering scientific posters and technical presentations for internal governance forums and external scientific or industry conferences.
