About the Role

We are seeking a highly experienced and motivated professional to lead our HIV drugs development program. As the Head of HIV Drugs, you will be responsible for developing and implementing strategies to advance the development of long-acting antiretrovirals for HIV prevention and treatment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and execute a comprehensive strategy for the development of long-acting antiretrovirals for HIV prevention and treatment.
  • Partner with industry stakeholders to advance the development of promising long-acting pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) compounds.
  • Collaborate with the New Product Planning and Introduction team to plan for product launch, including implementation studies, market development, and demand generation.
  • Manage a portfolio of early-stage platform investments aimed at developing next-generation long-acting products.
  • Develop and implement strategies to address key gaps along the TB care pathway through new approaches to protecting against infection, preventing progression from infection to disease, and improving diagnosis and treatment.
  • Effectively manage relationships with key internal partners within the matrixed organization.
  • Communicate HIV prevention strategies and decisions to internal and external partners; represent the foundation at external meetings with grantees, partners, and stakeholders.
Requirements
  • Significant years of professional experience in the biotech or pharmaceutical industries with demonstrated history of success with other drug development programs.
  • PhD and/or MD required or proven experience/advanced degree.
  • Broad understanding of HIV prevention, including issues related to API and drug substance; formulation and drug product; clinical trials; GMP manufacturing; and regulatory submission and approval requirements.
  • Experience in developing small molecule therapeutics is a requirement; experience with development of sterile products, proteins, and peptides, and monoclonal antibodies are significant assets.
  • Prior experience in development of therapeutics for infectious diseases and women's health conditions that primarily affect patients in low and low-middle income countries is a plus.
  • Expertise with innovative technology solutions such as long-acting drug delivery technologies, low-cost manufacturing, improved formulations to enhance bioavailability and/or reduce manufacturing costs, and/or drug delivery devices is an added advantage.
  • Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively with a wide variety of critical partners, both internal and external to the Foundation.
  • Energetic and energizing leadership style.
  • Clinical trial design (including statistics and data analysis).
  • Portfolio management experience (in pharma/biotech context).
  • Solid understanding and/or specific knowledge of elements of product and/or service development and launch (e.g., discovery, development, commercial launch).
  • Strong oral and written communications, as well as effective meeting and relationship facilitation skills.
  • Ability and comfort working within a highly matrixed organization.
  • Strong negotiating skills.
