Job description

Challenge yourself and grow your career with the reverse distribution industry's highest performer, Pharma Logistics. We are not an average company, our service is not average, our people are not average, and we work hard to hire outstanding colleagues for our team. We are seeking candidates who show passion for what they do, think in terms of continuous, never-ending improvement, and seek what is best for the team.

Pharma Logistics is a leader in the pharmaceutical compliance and reverse distribution industry, operating a DEA-approved fulfillment center in Libertyville, Illinois. We collect expired, recalled and unsaleable pharmaceutical product from retail pharmacies, health systems and government facilities, recover manufacturer credit on our customers' behalf, and dispose compliantly of what cannot be credited. We are licensed in all 50 states and Puerto Rico and hold NABP Drug Distributor Accreditation and DEA registration for Schedules II–V.

Job Summary

The Product Portfolio Manager owns the financial performance of Pharma Logistics' in-market products and services, including the Rapid Credit Program®, our upfront-payment offering that provides pharmacy customers with accelerated credit for returned product. The Rapid Credit Program is one of our most differentiated products and a central part of our retail strategy.

Reporting to the Head of Product Management, this is a single-owner, hands-on individual contributor role with real decision rights and executive visibility. You will track the portfolio against the revenue and profitability targets set by the Head of Product Management, recommend pricing changes on existing products, and own the eligibility criteria and governance of the Rapid Credit Program.
