1 day ago

Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Bikubenfonden Full time

Are you passionate about forging strategic partnerships and alliances across organizations and cultures? Do you have an excellent track record in managing complex collaborations with cross-organizational impact? Do you take pride in your great interpersonal skills and collaboration abilities? If so, you might be just the person we are looking for to join us.

NNF Cellerator will operate in a novel facility which is part of the Novo Nordisk Foundation's strategic focus areas in the regenerative medicine ecosystem. Cellerator aims to be at the forefront of cell therapy technology and engineering. The project mission is to accelerate the development of cell-based therapy into clinical trials and to establish a new key unit in the cell therapy ecosystem of Denmark and beyond, further supporting the strong growth of this field. Cellerator will operate as a development and manufacturing organization for cell-based therapies and will be open to academia as well as industry. Cellerator currently consists of 14 colleagues with diverse backgrounds and the team will increase during the coming years as part of the implementation strategy before going into operations.

The Job

You will be entrusted with significant responsibilities from day one. In addition to being a proficient partnership manager, your exceptional interpersonal skills will make you an integral part in the further development and successful establishment of a well-functioning organization. You will join an international, purpose-driven working environment with colleagues from diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

Your primary responsibilities will include:

  • Identifying, establishing, and managing strategic partnerships, networks, and alliances within the organization, ensuring alignment with its mission and goals.
  • Developing and executing comprehensive partnership plans, including objectives, deliverables, resources, budget, and timeline, ensuring cross-functional alignment.
  • Monitoring industry trends and landscape to identify new opportunities.
  • Utilizing problem-solving skills and frameworks to ensure the success of partnerships.
  • Monitoring partnership progress, identifying risks and issues, and implementing mitigation strategies.
  • Preparing and presenting partnership updates to executives and stakeholders.
  • Organizing partnership meetings: scheduling, drafting agendas, overseeing agenda items, managing the annual cycle, preparing materials, facilitating discussions, taking minutes, and following up on actions.
  • Providing a high-level overview of the NNF Cellerator project budget related to partnerships.

About you

Due to the novel nature of the Cellerator, curiosity outside of one's own area is highly valued, and you should be well-known for initiating collaboration between different business areas and across professional domains. Your former colleagues still talk about your excellent stakeholder management skills, and they miss working with you due to your ability to create both results and good relationships with the people around you.

You have:

  • 5+ years of experience from a similar role in a non-profit, pharma, or biotech organization.
  • Extensive experience in managing strategic partnerships and alliances.
  • Outstanding skills in problem-solving and applying consulting frameworks.
  • Excellent skills in verbal and written communication.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and project management software.
  • PMP certification is a plus.
  • Experience with handling budgets.
  • Fluent English, both spoken and written.
  • Knowledge of the nature and culture of science is an advantage.

To thrive and be successful in this role, it is crucial that you have strong collaborative skills, can easily build good relationships with the people around you, and are a strong believer in empowerment and achieving results as a team. You understand that company culture is important and actively seek to co-create a healthy and inclusive work environment. You thrive in a changing and dynamic work environment, and in a job that requires you to take initiatives and think out of the box when challenges occur.
