About Cemsidomide:
Cemsidomide is an investigational, orally bioavailable small-molecule degrader designed to be a more potent and selective degrader of IKZF1/3, transcription factors that drive multiple myeloma (MM), with unique pharmacokinetic properties. Data from the Phase 1 trial demonstrate cemsidomide's favorable safety and tolerability profile and class-leading anti-myeloma activity, supporting clear development paths for second line and later patient populations. C4T plans to advance cemsidomide through two clinical trials that will position the medicine for two distinct potential accelerated approvals.
Job Summary:
In this role, reporting to the President & Chief Executive Officer, you will bring together the various functions involved in advancing Cemsidomide through registrational development and FDA approval to define, lead, and drive the execution of our plan to ensure a successful commercial product. Your combination of drug development, commercialization and launch expertise, strategic thinking, and collaborative leadership will be key as you oversee the execution of a strategy that will be enthusiastically received by global regulators and potential patient populations.
Your experience in guiding clinical-stage hematological oncology assets into registrational development and commercialization will help you build strong partnerships across functions and with external collaborators.

Represent the program internally and externally, building relationships with groups that will be pivotal to commercial success and highlight the potential future of the asset (i.e. patient advocacy groups, key medical experts, policy makers, payors etc.); contribute to business development activities such as evaluating in-licensing or out-licensing opportunities. In collaboration with Program Manager, develop, implement, and maintain integrated project management plans covering program scope, timelines, budget, communications, risks, staffing, and change management - partnering with Finance, HR, and other functions as needed. Anticipate challenges early, develop thoughtful solutions, and ensure contingency plans are in place. Facilitate cross-functional team meetings, fostering a constructive environment, encouraging open discussion, and ensuring decisions and action items are addressed to completion. Promote open and transparent communication of program goals, progress, and challenges with stakeholders including the program team, senior leadership, board members, alliance partners, collaborators, regulatory agencies, and others as needed. Your Background:
Bachelor's Degree, with at least twelve years of experience in biotechnology or pharmaceutical development, including a strong record in both late-stage and commercial program leadership for hematological oncology products. An understanding of the scientific principles behind C4T's research and development, as well as broad knowledge of the biotechnology market, regulatory landscape, drug development process, global product registration, market dynamics, launch and pricing strategies, and business development. A collaborative leader who can build rapport and authority by leveraging strong interpersonal skills to figure out barriers to engagement and build healthier teams; comfort with seeking out internal or external experts to understand roadblocks, using this knowledge to build deeper relationships, and build consensus on best path forward for the program.
