Company Overview
Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced and versatile Manager / Senior Manager to join our R&D Finance team, which serves as the primary finance business partner to R&D teams across the organization. The primary focus of this role is clinical trial finance—owning the accruals, forecasting, reporting, and business partnership for an assigned portfolio of clinical studies—while also flexing to support additional areas across the R&D organization as the pipeline grows and matures.
