As Clinical Supplies Project Manager, you will play a central role in managing the operational execution of Moderna’s clinical drug supply programs. You will own the logistics and supply planning lifecycle across multiple studies, ensuring timely and compliant delivery of investigational products to depots and clinical sites. This position requires a high degree of coordination with cross-functional stakeholders—including Clinical, CMC, Regulatory, and external vendors—to deliver supply chain readiness across packaging, labeling, IRT systems, distribution, and temperature-controlled shipping. This individual contributor role is based in the UK and is ideal for a detail-oriented professional who thrives in a matrixed, fast-paced, and innovation-driven environment.

Your key responsibilities will be:
Lead logistics execution for labeling, packaging, and shipment of clinical drug supplies to depots and investigative sites.

Your responsibilities will also include:
Manage relationships with third-party vendors, overseeing procurement, delivery performance, labeling, and quality assurance.
Coordinate temperature excursion management and support investigational site activation activities.
Develop pharmacy manuals and drug supply training materials in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
Track global shipments, ensuring compliance and smooth logistics execution across borders.
Compile and analyze supply chain KPIs and metrics to monitor performance and identify areas for continuous improvement.
The key Moderna Mindsets you’ll need to succeed in the role:
“We behave like owners. The solutions we’re building go beyond any job description.”
This role requires a high level of accountability and self-direction—owning the clinical supply chain from planning through delivery, ensuring operational excellence across all touchpoints.
“We digitize everywhere possible using the power of code to maximize our impact on patients.”
With responsibilities involving IRT systems and digital tracking of distribution performance, your ability to harness digital solutions will be key in driving Moderna’s next-gen clinical operations forward.
