The New Product (NP) & Lifecycle Managment (LCM) Portfolio Lead comprises two primary roles: a Co-Development Lead (CDL) & a Technology Team Lead (TTL). The CDL is responsible for serving as the primary PGS representative in developing and leading late-stage small-molecule product development, ensuring PGS considerations are reflected in Co-Development project plans across all technologies (API/Analytical/Drug Product/Packaging) in partnership with Pharm Sci & PGS. The CDL role leads a PGS cross site and cross functional product focused team(s) and is responsible for PGS input into CMC strategy development and execution as well as PGS at risk spend elements of the overall CMC budget of late-stage clinical product development (Co-Development). For each product assigned, the candidate will drive PGS input to product strategy and provide this input across the co-development process. Including development, manufacturing and regulatory submission content to deliver the Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP), Validation and Launch strategies, knowledge management (including delivery of Process Understanding Plans (PUPs)), project timelines, key project milestones, and lessons learned. The TTL is responsible for serving as the primary technical PGS representative in managing in-line, or marketed, products, ensuring PGS technical considerations are reflected in Technology Lifecycle plans across all technologies (API/Analytical/Drug Product/Packaging) in partnership with other PGS functions. The TTL role leads a PGS cross-site and cross-functional product-focused team and is responsible for facilitating evaluation & implementation of technical projects related to product supply (including product quality/compliance) and/or cost-savings and understanding & communicating product risks & project milestones.
The candidate will build relationships with business line partners (Business Units, Pfizer Research & Development (PRD), Pfizer Global Supply (PGS) functions and manufacturing sites, and small molecule Pharm Sciences (PSSM)) to advocate for the strategies, plans and timelines of Co-Development Team(s) & Technology Team(s).
