Cambridge, CB2, UK
Apply Now

Company: NORTHREACH

Job Type: Permanent, Full Time

Salary: £40000 - £50000/annum

An established international pharmaceutical organisation is expanding its Biologics R&D capability in Cambridge and is seeking an experienced Project Manager to support the advancement of Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) programmes from candidate nomination through IND/CTA and into early clinical development.

This is a delivery-focused role within a growing biologics function, ideal for a project leader with experience in complex biologics programmes and a strong understanding of early development.

The Role

You will be responsible for driving cross-functional coordination of ADC early development programmes, ensuring alignment, delivery and risk management across key functions.

Key responsibilities include:

* Leading cross-functional project teams across CMC, non-clinical, regulatory and clinical functions

* Building and maintaining integrated development plans

* Managing timelines, milestones, risks and mitigation strategies

* Supporting the preparation and submission of IND/CTA documentation

* Ensuring clear communication and alignment between scientific and operational stakeholders

* Providing modality awareness in ADC technologies to enable informed programme decision-making

This role reports into senior leadership within Project Management & Operations.

What We're Looking For

You will likely bring:

* A PhD or equivalent experience in life sciences (biochemistry, immunology, chemistry, pharmacy or related field)

* Experience within biotech or pharma

* Proven project management experience within biologics or oncology programmes

* Exposure to ADC or complex biologics modalities

* Experience supporting preclinical development and IND/CTA submissions

* Strong project planning, risk management and cross-functional leadership skills

* The ability to operate confidently within a dynamic R&D environment

You do not need to be the scientific architect of the molecule — but you must be comfortable working within technically complex biologics programmes.

Why Consider This Role?

* Opportunity to join a growing biologics platform in Cambridge

* Exposure to next-generation oncology modalities

* High visibility within a strategically expanding R&D function

* Collaborative, values-driven culture

* Genuine opportunity to shape early development execution

This is an excellent opportunity for a biologics Project Manager seeking greater programme ownership within a well-funded and expanding R&D organisation
