About The Position

Reporting to the R&D Laboratory Manager, the Facilities Manager will oversee daily operations and maintenance of laboratory, research, and manufacturing environments. This individual will ensure all facility systems operate safely, efficiently, and in compliance with FDA, GMP, and OSHA standards, supporting a high-complexity, regulated laboratory environment. This role will serve as the primary lead for critical infrastructure, including cleanrooms and specialized laboratory utilities, ensuring operational continuity and readiness to support scientific and clinical activities. Celcuity is a clinical-stage, publicly traded biotechnology company seeking to extend the lives of cancer patients through the development of targeted therapies for the treatment of multiple solid tumor indications. The company was founded to develop a better way to treat the cellular drivers of tumor growth. Our lead therapeutic candidate, gedatolisib, is an intravenously administered, potential first-in-class PI3K/AKT/mTOR (PAM) pathway inhibitor. Its mechanism of action and pharmacokinetic properties are highly differentiated from other currently approved and investigational therapies that target PI3K or mTOR alone or together. Gedatolisib phase 3 clinical development programs are focused on the treatment of patients with HR+/HER2- ABC in the 1L and 2L settings. A Phase 1b/2 clinical trial evaluating gedatolisib in combination with darolutamide in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, is ongoing.
