We are searching for the best talent for Senior Manager, Public-Private Partnerships in New Brunswick or Titusville or Raritan, NJ or Horsham or Spring House, PA or Washington, DC.

Purpose: Reporting to the Head, Focus Area Leadership IM, the Senior Manager, Public-Private Partnerships will lead and direct, in a matrix environment, Strategic Partnerships and Resource Group's (SPRG)IM R&D strategy and engagement with senior IM R&D leaders. This role is responsible for securing, maximizing, and sustaining strategic U.S. federal and state Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) (primarily but also EU and global) to amplify R&D resources. The position sets the leadership tone to ensure SPRG-together with Legal, IP, HCC/Compliance, Government Affairs & Policy (GA&P), Finance, and Procurement-executes PPPs within J&J's risk framework and U.S. regulatory requirements. Although the role is expected to deliver U.S. PPP value at both the federal and state level to J&J business partners, the role is not tied to geographic region and is J&J business partner focused. However, this role will serve as an SME within the team, meeting the need of a growing federal and state PPP environment in the U.S.

You will be responsible for:

• U.S. Portfolio Leadership: Provide leadership and strategic direction for U.S. IM R&D PPP initiatives, federal and state; serve as a highly valued resource to U.S.-based IM R&D leaders. Where projects are global or cross-sector, ensure seamless collaboration with relevant leaders and team members.
• Primary U.S. Point of Contact: Act as the primary SPRG point of contact for senior U.S. IM R&D leaders and external U.S. stakeholders, including federal and state agencies and consortia.
• USG Engagement & Capture: Lead capture strategy, relationship development, and opportunity shaping with U.S. agencies (e.g., NIH, BARDA/ASPR, ARPA-H, DARPA, DoD/CDMRP, DTRA, VA/ORD, CDC, NIST, NSF) and relevant state/regional innovation bodies. Drive white papers, concept notes, consortia formation, and partnering strategies.
• End-to-End PPP Delivery: Oversee end-to-end PPP lifecycle-opportunity identification, internal alignment, proposal development, submission, negotiation, execution, governance, close-out, and audit readiness-ensuring timelines, approvals, and communications are met.
• Complex Agreement Structures: Navigate and help negotiate complex U.S. mechanisms, including grants, cooperative agreements, CRADAs, OTAs, contracts, prizes/challenges, and research consortia agreements, in alignment with Legal, IP, and Compliance and Grant Experts (within SPRG)
• Compliance & Risk Management: Ensure adherence to U.S. federal regulations and policies applicable to PPPs (e.g., Uniform Guidance 2 CFR Part 200, Bayh-Dole Act obligations for IP, and FAR/DFARS where applicable). Ensure visibility, documentation, and compliance with J&J's HCC and contracting standards.
• Key Account Strategy: In alignment with other SPRG Focus Area Leaders, own or contribute to "key account" strategies for priority agencies and funders; maintain a pipeline view and account plans to drive sustainable, strategic partnerships.
• Strategic Insight & Foresight: Conduct advanced analyses of U.S. R&D trends, federal appropriations, and agency priorities, and translate insights into a proactive PPP pipeline aligned with IM R&D strategy.
• Matrix Leadership & Mentorship: Guide colleagues through consultation, mentoring, and collaborative leadership; provide functional (matrix) supervision to elevate PPP capabilities across SPRG and partner teams.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Foster a highly collaborative culture across Grant Experts, Operations/PMO, Legal, IP, HCC, GA&P, Finance, and Procurement to deliver efficient, high-quality outcomes.
• Stakeholder Satisfaction: Maintain high standards of partner service delivery via regular check-ins with senior U.S. R&D leaders; communicate strategically to bring visibility to SPRG initiatives and outcomes.
• Culture & Inclusion: Foster a purpose-driven culture aligned with Our Credo, champion inclusion, diversity, and belonging, and model J&J leadership imperatives.
• Travel: Travel as needed (~20-30% domestic) for key agency meetings (e.g., Washington, D.C. corridor), partner visits, and internal stakeholder engagements.

Skills/Experience:

Required:

• Minimum of 10 years of experience in the pharmaceutical/biotech/medical device industry with deep expertise in R&D and/or adjacent domains (e.g., CMC, translational science, clinical development, supply chain enabling R&D).

• Knowledge of EU PPP arrangements.
• Demonstrated experience meeting with U.S. Government agencies to discuss complex strategic partnerships, including familiarity with mechanisms such as grants, cooperative agreements, CRADAs, OTAs, and contracts.
• Strong business acumen with budget ownership and financial stewardship for multi-partner programs.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and influencing skills; ability to translate scientific and technical opportunities into compelling partnership strategies for USG audiences.
• Proven ability to build relationships and collaborate effectively in a matrixed environment.
• Experience orchestrating complex, multi-stakeholder programs with clear governance and risk management.
• Knowledge of PPP models, U.S. healthcare funding, and compliance requirements.

Preferred:

• Experience across Innovative Medicine therapeutic areas and enabling technologies (e.g., oncology, immunology, neuroscience, cardiovascular/metabolism; biomarkers; data science; AI/ML).
• Experience with consortium governance, IP strategy in multi-party collaborations, and data-sharing frameworks.
