Role

We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Head of Program & Alliance Management to drive cross‑functional execution and orchestrate the activities of our therapeutic antibody programs from early discovery through IND submission, while architecting and scaling the company’s program management function. The successful candidate will play a critical role in providing comprehensive project management for programs progressing toward IND, ensuring alignment, prioritization, and efficient execution across research and preclinical development teams.

Reporting in‑person to the VP of Preclinical Development, this individual will be an individual contributor and the primary driver of operational excellence, by collaborating closely with research, preclinical, CMC, and clinical functions to drive program advancement, maintain integrated project plans, and facilitate clear and effective communication among all key stakeholders.

The ideal candidate will also be excited to wear many hats and learn and teach along the way. We care more about what you can do than titles or degrees at Infinimmune, so if this sounds like you, please reach out!
