Pipeline Project Management drives decisions and enables teams to choose the best path and deliver medicines to patients faster than ever.
In GSK, the Pipeline Project Manager (PPM) will act as the ‘COO' of the asset and will partner with project leads to help teams plot the best course, then accelerate through complexity and uncertainty with no compromise to quality or safety.
Pipeline Project Managers compose a community of drug/vaccine development and commercialization experts applying industry-leading project management practices to plan and deliver pipeline projects with industry-leading performance:
The PPM can also operate at program level, as when (for example) a franchise or disease-area team oversees multiple projects under the umbrella of a single program strategy.
The Director brings significant experience and demonstrates success managing R&D pipeline projects within a complex life sciences organization. The Director can independently manage multiple projects and is considered a strategic thought partner to the project team leader in defining and delivering project goals by applying expertise in varying PM methodologies.
The Director PPM leads the creation, optimization, and execution of ambitious plans with accountability for all asset/workstream PPM deliverables. The Director leads the application of established project management approaches and resources and influences the development of new capabilities. The Director may lead Associate Director PPMs and/or flexible service providers, with or without a formal reporting relationship.
