The posting

We are a specialty vaccine company that develops, manufactures, and commercializes prophylactic vaccines for infectious diseases addressing unmet medical needs.

We have leveraged our expertise and capabilities both to commercialize three vaccines, including the world’s first and only chikungunya vaccine, and to rapidly advance a broad range of vaccine candidates into and through the clinic, including candidates against Lyme disease and Zika.

Valneva USA is focused on the marketing and distribution of vaccines for Japanese encephalitis and chikungunya.

The Senior Business Operations Manager serves as a U.S. strategic leader responsible for overseeing 3PL and end-to-end vaccine logistics operations across the market. This role drives operational excellence by optimizing distribution networks, enhancing supply reliability, and delivering sustainable cost efficiencies while ensuring full compliance with FDA, CDC, and other applicable regulatory requirements.

As a key member of the U.S. leadership team, this position aligns logistics and commercial operations with broader corporate strategy to support product launches, government contracting, and ongoing lifecycle management within the vaccine portfolio. The role champions cross-functional collaboration across Commercial, Medical, Regulatory, Quality, Finance, and Global Supply teams to ensure seamless execution.

With a strong focus on scalability and agility, the Senior Business Operations Manager leverages data-driven insights, process standardization, and continuous improvement methodologies to strengthen supply continuity, mitigate risk, and enable long-term growth in a highly regulated and mission-critical environment.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
