About The Position
Eisai's global health team seeks a motivated and dynamic Project Manager for its portfolio of programs developing new medicines for diseases with devastating burdens in the developing world. These efforts are focused on malaria, tuberculosis and the neglected tropical diseases (such as lymphatic filariasis, Chagas disease and leishmaniasis), and are conducted in collaboration with prominent academic and non-profit organizations. Highlights from the late-stage portfolio include a pivotal clinical trial in Sudan for a new mycetoma therapy, a Phase II clinical trial in the Peruvian Amazon for a new malaria medicine and a Phase I study for another novel antimalarial. Innovative early-stage programs include pioneering advanced therapeutic modalities, and harnessing state-of-the-art data science techniques to accelerate drug discovery. These efforts are complemented by initiatives to build African R&D capabilities and develop innovative finance models in global health. The Project Manager will be a key member of the global health team, responsible for smooth functioning of multiple drug development projects focused on malaria, tuberculosis and the neglected tropical diseases. This is a varied and dynamic position that spans project operations and planning, budgeting, grant management and contracting. The Project Manager will interface with a range of internal stakeholders, including several scientific groups (chemistry, safety, DMPK, CMC), legal and finance, as well as external collaboration partners and grant agencies in the US and internationally.
