With three biologics programs in the clinic and multiple ongoing studies from Phase I to Phase III, we are seeking an experienced Executive Director, Clinical Supply Management to join our CMC leadership team and make sure every patient in our trials receives the right investigational product, on time. Reporting to the Chief Technology Officer (Head of CMC), you will own clinical supply strategy, planning and execution for all Jade programs. You will shape and scale the Clinical Supply Management function, growing and mentoring a team of internal employees and contractors, and you will lead a global network of CMOs and logistics partners supporting complex, multi-country and multi-site studies with ambitious timelines and enrollment targets. This is a high-impact role for a self-starter who combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

Plan demand and supply: Build and maintain integrated global demand forecasts and supply plans based on protocols, enrollment projections and site activation plans. Balance drug product availability, shelf life, overage and cost, and update plans as studies evolve. Advise on potential risk and challenges to Senior Management and peer groups such as Clinical Operations and Development. Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner closely with Clinical Operations and Clinical Development on study-specific supply strategies, and with Quality, Regulatory Affairs and CMC to forecast, align and continuously update supply requirements for ongoing and future studies. Develop options and recommendations for stakeholders and senior management. Select and manage CMOs and suppliers: Select, contract and manage clinical supply CMOs, depots, couriers, logistics providers, and other critical suppliers. Set clear performance expectations and KPIs, and build strong partnerships that ensure quality, reliability and cost-effective supply. Oversee clinical supply operations: Direct labeling, packaging, blinding, cold-chain storage and global distribution for all drug product formats, including vials, pre-filled syringes and autoinjectors. Manage comparator sourcing, expiry extensions, relabeling, returns, reconciliation and destruction. Manage IRT and inventory: Define supply requirements for IRT/IxRS systems, including resupply strategies and user acceptance testing, and monitor inventory at depots and sites to prevent stock-outs and minimize waste. Ensure compliance and quality: Maintain full compliance with Jade SOPs, cGMP, GDP, GCP, ICH guidelines and applicable global regulatory and import/export requirements. Partner with Quality on batch release (including QP release for EU studies), deviations and change controls, keep the function inspection-ready, and contribute to regulatory submissions (IND, IMPD, CTA). Own the budget and reporting: Manage the clinical supply budget, and report regularly and concisely to stakeholders and senior management on inventory, supply and demand, changes and risks across all programs. Qualifications Bachelor’s or Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Life Sciences, Chemical Engineering or a related field. 15+ years of progressive experience in clinical supply chain management, ideally with biologics, including significant experience leading teams.
