The role leads managers responsible for day-to-day execution and analyst development, and partners with the Manager, Monitoring Operations, who owns monitoring standards/materials and monitoring-related Genesys/CRM functionality.

  • Lead the Program Monitoring organization across locations (East Hanover, NJ; Tempe, AZ; Mexico City, Mexico; Hyderabad, India) through direct leadership of managers/people leaders; ensure monitoring and escalation execution is consistent and high quality across teams.
  • Oversee Program Monitoring & Escalations governance outcomes: define escalation thresholds/decision trees; ensure governance forums receive decision-ready narratives; and ensure remediation actions are assigned, prioritized, and tracked to closure.
  • Responsible for team performance, engagement, people management (growth/coaching/motivation), adherence to company policies/processes
  • Maintain a deep understanding of NPC policies and requirements and perform all responsibilities with integrity and in a manner consistent with company policy and/or guidance
  • Supporting the short, -mid and long-term operations agenda and priorities for program transitions, new launches, new technologies, and near- and off-shore capabilities
  • Build strong partnerships with PSC Program Management, Business Operations, ATP Customer Support, PSC Training, NPS Analytics, NPS Quality Assurance, IDS, DDIT, Product/Technology, ERC, Legal, and Compliance to align monitoring expectations, reporting, escalation pathways, and remediation ownership.
  • Demonstrate a proactive approach to continual improvement by leading with a quality mindset
  • Responsible for identifying and reporting adverse events via the established Novartis systems as per applicable processes
