Portfolio Manager-NPI
About the role
The Portfolio Manager – New Product Introduction (NPI) leads portfolio governance, prioritization, and flow of client programs from pre-quote feasibility through launch in a CDMO. This role translates the Business Development (Salesforce) pipeline into a probability-weighted, capacity-feasible roadmap across people and equipment (on-line and off-line activities), safeguards quarterly revenue delivery, and ensures audit-ready decision-making.
Responsibilities
- Translate the Salesforce BD pipeline into a 12–18 month, probability-weighted NPI roadmap covering both on-line (lines/suites/lyos) and off-line (method transfer, protocol/documentation, QA/RA reviews, stability) activities.
- Publish and own the Pipeline → Capacity → Revenue bridge, NPI roadmap/heatmap, Revenue-at-Risk watchlist, and Clea-To-Build (CTB) readiness index for revenue-bearing batches.
- Identify, quantify, and resolve revenue-at-risk with clear owners, mitigation plans, and escalation to Site Leadership Team (SLT) as required.
- Agregate and manage portfolio-level risks (including assay readiness, validation burden, regulatory timelines, equipment reliability) and maintain an audit-ready decision log.
- Drive short-interval control: weekly BD–PMO pipeline sync, weekly portfolio stand-up for hotspots, and bi-weekly resource council; lead quarterly revenue assurance reviews.
- Track quote assumption adherence (effort, schedule) versus actuals; support Project Manager escalations to Relationship Manager to improve estimate accuracy and reduce pricing leakage.
- Partner with Finance to align recognition rules (milestone/T&M/%-complete) and deliver accurate in-quarter and next-quarter revenue forecasts.
- Ensure portfolio artifacts meet data integrity (ALCOA+) and cGMP expectations; coordinate with QA/RA and ensure computer system validation (CSV) considerations for supporting tools.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Project Management, Engineering, Science, or Business (Master’s or MBA preferred).
- PMP or PfMP certification; Lean/Six Sigma exposure desired
- 7-10+ years of experience in pharmaceutical/biologics/sterile manufacturing or regulated operations, including 3–5 years in portfolio/program governance or PMO leadership.
- Demonstrated experience with stage-gate governance, capacity/resource planning, and portfolio reporting in regulated environments (cGMP).
- Proficiency with Salesforce concepts (pipeline, CPQ/quotes), Power BI (or equivalent analytics), SharePoint, and Microsoft Project/Planner.
- Strong stakeholder facilitation across BD, Tech Ops, QA/RA, Manufacturing, Finance, and Clients; excellent communication and decision-pack skills.
- Experience building probability-weighted forecasts, revenue-at-risk analysis, and what-if scenario modeling in a manufacturing context.
