  • Coordinate final approvals with US Regulatory partners and support US 2253 submission processes as applicable.

  • Global references & labeling review: Coordinate the global review and approval workflow for reference documents in partnership with Global Regulatory, Medical, and Labeling stakeholders, ensuring adherence to established global standards.

  • Partner with Global Regulatory/Medical/Labeling stakeholders to ensure documents are reviewed against established global standards and maintained as approved source-of-truth content.

  • Maintain approved libraries and/or controlled repositories (as applicable), ensuring stakeholders and agencies have access to current, approved versions.

  • Identify recurring issues (e.g., outdated references, version misalignment, inconsistencies) and lead corrective actions such as submission quality requirements, documentation updates, and training refreshes.

  • Own process improvements within established governance: Maintain and improve process documentation (MLR Playbooks, job aids, checklists, training documentation) for US MLR and Global reference/labeling workflows; ensure consistent adoption across teams and vendor partners.

  • Use reporting metrics and qualitative feedback to identify recurring bottlenecks (rework drivers, late submissions, capacity constraints) and recommend or implement corrective actions within defined processes.

  • Partner cross-functionally to implement improvements such as submission standards, review meeting structure updates, training enhancements, and queue health improvements.

  • Vault PromoMats operations and reporting (US scope): Maintain Vault PromoMats content and workflow operations including task reassignments, queue management, running reports, and batch updates to records.

  • Provide input into Vault workflow/process enhancements; participate in UAT/testing and rollout activities with system owners/admins.

  • Provide routine operational reporting (cycle time, queue status, adherence to timelines) to stakeholders and leadership to support informed decision-making.

  • Monitor and report on forecast volume and work with brand teams to prioritize workloads of reviewers.

  • Enablement and onboarding: Train and onboard new employees and agency/vendor partners on US MLR processes, Global reference/labeling workflows, and Vault usage.
