Full Description

Join Infosys Consulting as a Project Management Consultant in the lifesciences sector, where you will play a pivotal role in transforming complex biotech and pharmaceutical projects into high-impact successes. This position is crucial for advancing our clients' missions in drug development, clinical trials, and regulatory compliance, directly contributing to groundbreaking therapies and operational excellence that save lives and drive industry innovation. Your strategic oversight will ensure projects align with business goals, delivering measurable value to global lifesciences leaders. In this dynamic role, you will lead end-to-end project lifecycles, from initiation through closure, managing timelines, budgets, and resources for multifaceted lifesciences initiatives. Daily tasks include conducting stakeholder meetings to align expectations, developing detailed project plans using tools like MS Project and Jira, and tracking progress against key performance indicators such as on-time delivery and cost variance. Weekly, you will facilitate risk assessments, mitigate issues in clinical supply chains or R&D pipelines, and generate status reports for executive review. Monthly responsibilities encompass resource allocation reviews, vendor management for CRO partnerships, and delivering milestones like Phase II trial optimizations or manufacturing scale-ups. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including R&D scientists, regulatory experts, and IT specialists, fostering agile methodologies to accelerate drug launches. Leadership duties involve mentoring junior PMs, conducting post-project reviews to capture lessons learned, and ensuring compliance with FDA guidelines, all while achieving 95%+ client satisfaction metrics. To excel, candidates must hold a Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences, Engineering, or Business Administration, with a Master's or PMP certification strongly preferred. A minimum of 5-7 years of project management experience in biotech or pharmaceutical environments is required, including hands-on work with GxP regulations, clinical trial management, and supply chain logistics. Proficiency in technical tools such as Primavera, Smartsheet, and BI platforms like Tableau is essential, alongside deep domain knowledge in areas like gene therapy, biologics manufacturing, and pharmacovigilance. Familiarity with ISO 13485 standards and experience with digital transformation projects in lifesciences will set you apart. Success demands a blend of technical prowess and interpersonal strengths. Technically, you should master agile and waterfall frameworks, data analytics for project forecasting, and ERP systems tailored to pharma operations. Soft skills like exceptional communication for C-suite presentations, adaptive leadership to navigate regulatory hurdles, and problem-solving under pressure are vital. Industry competencies include understanding EMA/FDA submission processes, biotech funding cycles, and sustainable innovation practices, enabling you to thrive in fast-paced, high-stakes settings. Infosys Consulting, a global leader in digital transformation, empowers lifesciences clients through innovation and excellence.
