Senior Project Manager, Commercial Strategy & Innovation

Accountabilities:

In this role, you will coordinate strategic priorities, strengthen collaboration across business functions, and ensure that key initiatives progress efficiently from planning to execution. Your responsibilities will include:

• Coordinate account planning for priority pharmaceutical clients, including executive meetings, quarterly business reviews, client touchpoints, follow-ups, and cross-functional planning.

• Maintain a forward-looking overview of account priorities, client milestones, proposal deadlines, leadership meetings, and cross-functional opportunities.

• Track the enterprise pipeline, account plans, opportunity stages, owners, next steps, follow-ups, and available revenue attribution across priority accounts.

• Identify stalled opportunities, scheduling conflicts, ownership gaps, and unresolved decisions, escalating issues proactively when necessary.

• Build a strong understanding of organizational capabilities and coordinate the involvement of relationship executives, subject-matter experts, solution leads, and delivery teams based on client needs.

• Support revenue reporting by coordinating cross-functional inputs and tracking opportunities, ownership, next actions, and available revenue attribution without owning revenue targets or decisions.

• Prepare stakeholders for strategic meetings by developing agendas, briefing documents, presentations, account updates, and recommended next steps.

• Help develop and implement repeatable account-planning tools, proposal processes, handoff workflows, governance models, and performance-tracking systems.

• Coordinate post-meeting follow-through and governance activities, documenting commitments, clarifying ownership, and ensuring action items progress to completion.
