This individual will support strategic and operational initiatives tied to trade compliance, import/export readiness, data quality, global process alignment, and risk mitigation across a complex supply chain. Unlike traditional roles that rely heavily on rigid PMO frameworks, this position requires someone who can create clarity out of ambiguity, build strong cross‑functional relationships, and drive progress without needing heavy structure in place.

• Contribute to continuous improvement of global trade processes, data quality, and compliance workflows.
• Help create structure in a fast-moving, matrixed environment.

• 5–10 years of project management experience in Supply Chain, Operations, or Compliance.
• Prior experience in pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical supply chain environments.
• Strong ability to operate in ambiguous, evolving environments and create order where needed.
• Demonstrated ability to influence stakeholders and drive alignment across cross-functional teams.
• Skilled in building practical project artifacts (timelines, RAID logs, communication plans) without excessive formality.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to interact with leadership, SMEs, and external partners.
• Experience working with compliance-heavy processes (import/export, trade compliance, quality, regulatory, or similar).
• Experience supporting trade compliance, customs, import/export, or global supply chain governance.
• Familiarity with SAP, SAP GTS, or similar global trade platforms.
• PMP, PMI-ACP, or similar certification is a plus but not required.
• Demonstrated success building structure in fast-moving, matrixed environments.
• Flexible, adaptable, and comfortable shifting between strategic and tactical work.
• Strong problem solver who proactively removes obstacles.
• Excellent relationship-building skills across functions and regions.
