Senior PMO Consultant

Full-Time Consulting Role (40 hours/week) Duration: 12 months Position: The CMO's organization is managing multiple concurrent deliveries against competing priorities and finite capacity. This engagement brings in a senior operator to install the operating rhythm, orchestrate cross-team execution, and create the visibility and decision discipline needed to land commitments on time and to leave behind an operating system the organization can sustain. Responsibilities: Run the operating rhythm for the CMO's organization, leadership meetings, prioritization, and clear paths for decisions and escalations. Maintain a single, transparent view of priorities and force resolution when demands compete for the same capacity. Coordinate delivery across the clinical development chain (Clinical Ops, Biostatistics, Data Management, Regulatory, CMC, Medical), managing the dependencies that gate submissions. Track milestones, deliverables, and risks across the portfolio; maintain a live view of what's on track and what's not, and drive timely course corrections. Prepare the CMO for board, executive, and governance meetings, briefings, decision materials, and follow-through. Triage demands on the CMO's office and cleanly tee up decisions. Lead discrete cross-cutting initiatives on the CMO's behalf (e.g., portfolio prioritization, capacity planning). Stand up simple, fit-for-purpose reporting so status and trade-offs stay visible. Requirements: Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences; advanced degree preferred. 10+ years across clinical development program/portfolio management and a chief-of-staff or equivalent senior operating role. Deep clinical development background, with program management experience in a senior role within a clinical development organization. Consulting background. Fluent from phase through submission: study start-up, trial execution, CRO management, and coordination across Clinical Ops, Biostatistics, Data Management, CMC, and Regulatory. Regulatory experience, working knowledge of FDA (ideally EMA/ICH) processes and submission requirements, enough to anticipate regulatory dependencies rather than react to them. Hands‑on BLA experience has personally worked on a Biologics License Application, including module coordination, submission timeline, and the cross‑functional submission team. Strong record orchestrating cross‑functional delivery under competing priorities and fixed regulatory timelines. Experience in building repeatable operating systems, not just task lists. Drives accountability across teams that don't report to them. Credible in the C‑suite and trusted to prepare an executive for high‑stakes moments. Strong written communication; turns complexity into clear decisions. Comfortable with ambiguity, with the judgment to know what to elevate versus absorb. #J-18808-Ljbffr Kaye/Bassman International
