At PTC Therapeutics, the position of Manager, Project Management provides technical and operational guidance to the framework, processes and tools that enable teams to effectively plan, execute and report on PTC’s programs across all stages of drug development. This is a unique opportunity to impact the design, development and management of breakthrough technologies and groundbreaking research to develop drug therapies. Project Managers (PMs) support cross-functional project teams to ensure projects meet objectives and deliverables. PMs are also accountable for driving department and functional initiatives to completion.
The incumbent PM leads and facilitates cross-functional teams and meetings comprised of both internal and external resources including but not limited to: clinical operations, biostatistics, medical writing, medical monitoring, safety, clinical supplies, regulatory affairs, quality, pharmaceutical development, manufacturing, medical affairs, commercial development, marketing, finance, and legal, etc. Earlier stage projects may also involve participation from discovery research (e.g. biology, medicinal chemistry, pre-clinical pharmacology, toxicology, etc.) while later stage projects may involve participation from the commercial organization (e.g. patient advocacy, etc.)
PMs serve as the primary point of contact for project teams on status of all program-related issues, both on-going and potential, as appropriate. The incumbent will directly support the creation and maintenance of integrated timelines, project backlogs, and strategic development plans. PMs will periodically review progress and ensure alignment among multiple stakeholders and collaborate with other project managers and planners for optimal alignment and visibility of deliverables. PMs are expected to draw on their knowledge and expertise in small molecule, biologics and/or gene therapy development to guide key stakeholders and partners in facilitating progress, removing impediments, and fostering a mindset of continuous improvement. PMs work with diverse groups of employees at all levels, and support teams working on projects of different types and stages.
Project Managers at PTC are agents of change, pioneering the application of Project Management values and Agile principles in biopharma, while adhering to relevant regulatory requirements and company Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) as appropriate. For those successful candidates, this will be a challenging opportunity to both transform a business and set a new precedent in the industry.
