• Lead end-to-end clinical supply chain strategy for assigned global programs, establishing Phase I/II processes while building for the large‑scale requirements of Phase III pivotal trials.
• Oversee complex clinical demand forecasting, packaging, labeling, global distribution, logistics, and inventory management as trial footprints expand internationally.

• Build and improve data‑driven workflows by leveraging AI and advanced tools to optimize forecasting, inventory management, and logistics processes.
• Partner seamlessly across Clinical Operations, Quality Assurance, Regulatory, and CMC to ensure supply strategies align with accelerating trial milestones and commercial readiness.
• Create scalable supply chain tools, SOPs, and proactive risk‑mitigation strategies capable of supporting registrational trials, flexible protocols, and uninterrupted patient supply.
