Your role:

The Executive Director/Vice President, Global Program Head Oncology (GPH) serves as the primary architect and owner of the end-to-end lifecycle for complex internal or partnered global development programs.

You will assume sole and final accountability for the program’s strategic integrity, execution, and financial risk profile. As the primary authority responsible for presenting to the Portfolio Governance Committee and Investment Board, the GPH is directly responsible for the asset’s trajectory and fiscal health. This includes the mandate to ensure that strategic or investment decisions prioritize both accelerated delivery and uncompromising asset value and quality. The GPH is personally accountable for maximizing the competitive value and ROI of every assigned asset.

Your will:

• Define a comprehensive program vision and strategy, integrating cross-functional plans across multiple assets and indications to maximize long-term value and growth.

• Serve as the definitive internal authority and primary liaison for assigned programs, taking full ownership of information accuracy and consistency across the organization.
• Serve as the final authority on program messaging, ensuring consistent and compliant communication across all stakeholder channels.
• Assume full accountability for program financial health, managing budget execution and investment decisions in alignment with the program contract.
