We are seeking a proven leader to join our team as an Associate Director / Director of Program Management . In this role, you won’t just manage projects—you’ll lead multidisciplinary teams through the full lifecycle of cutting-edge life science and clinical product development, from concept through commercialization.

• Own end-to-end program execution—from early concept through product launch—ensuring that timelines, budgets, quality, and customer needs are met or exceeded.
• Serve as the central leadership voice for your programs; reporting progress to executive stakeholders, guiding internal teams, and representing the company with external contractors, collaborators, and customers.
• Facilitate structured decision-making, run efficient core team meetings, maintain program plans, and lead teams to resolve critical path issues.
