Position Summary

Reporting to the Vice President, Regulatory Affairs, the Director/Senior Director/Executive Director, Regulatory Affairs leads regulatory strategy and submission execution for one or more oncology development programs spanning early through late-stage clinical development and registration.

This role calls for a strategic regulatory thinker who is equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves on submission execution – someone with deep knowledge of global regulatory requirements, a track record leading complex submissions and health authority interactions, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, small-company biotechnology environment. The successful candidate will serve as the primary regulatory lead for the assigned program(s), representing Regulatory Affairs on cross-functional development teams.

• Review key submission documents to ensure consistency of regulatory messaging.

Regulatory Strategy

• Lead/support development and execution of global regulatory strategies – including early-phase strategies for first-in-human through dose-expansion programs – to support efficient product development and registration.

• Provide strategic regulatory recommendations across nonclinical, CMC, clinical development, companion diagnostics, and lifecycle management activities.

• Ensure regulatory strategies are aligned with corporate objectives, development timelines, and commercialization plans.

• Evaluate regulatory risks and opportunities while recommending practical solutions to optimize development pathways, including expedited pathways (Breakthrough Therapy, Fast Track, Accelerated Approval) where applicable.

• Monitor evolving global regulatory requirements and communicate potential impact on company programs.

Regulatory Leadership

• Serve as the Regulatory Affairs representative on cross-functional program teams for the assigned program(s).

• Lead regulatory planning for major development milestones, including those relevant to public company disclosures and investor communications, in partnership with Legal and Investor Relations.

• Provide strategic input into clinical protocols, investigator brochures, informed consent documents, safety reporting, and other development documents.

• (Senior Director/Executive Director) Manage and mentor regulatory affairs staff as team scope grows.

Health Authority Interactions

• Lead preparation for regulatory agency meetings, including Type B/C meetings characteristic of early-phase oncology programs.

• Lead or support interactions with FDA and other global health authorities for assigned programs.
