Job Description

Hemab Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing transformative therapies for patients with rare and underserved bleeding disorders. Focused specifically on conditions such as Glanzmann thrombasthenia and von Willebrand Disease, Hemab addresses significant unmet medical needs by pioneering novel treatment options where innovation has historically been limited. As a lean, high-trust organization, Hemab emphasizes impact, excellence, and integrity in its pursuit of better patient outcomes. The company fosters a dynamic work environment characterized by agility, thoughtful decision-making, and high standards, all aimed at improving the lives of patients affected by these challenging disorders. Hemab Therapeutics values diversity and inclusivity, maintaining an environment where each employee’s work contributes directly to advancing clinical and scientific progress in rare bleeding disorders.

Hemab Therapeutics is currently seeking a Senior Director of Clinical Operations, a pivotal leadership role that will drive the operational backbone of the company’s sutacimig clinical program. This position is ideal for an innovative leader who excels in strategic problem-solving and raising the bar on execution standards. Reporting directly to the Vice President of Clinical Operations with a dotted line to the CEO, the Senior Director will take ownership of end-to-end clinical trial delivery across a diverse and expanding global portfolio. This includes managing clinical studies ranging from first-in-human trials to pivotal late-stage studies. The role requires a forward-thinking professional who continuously identifies smarter, faster, and more patient-centric methods to optimize clinical operations. The Senior Director will lead the design and implementation of innovative trial strategies, ensure compliance with international regulatory standards, and maintain rigorous oversight on budgets and timelines. Situated in Boston, this hybrid position requires a minimum of two to three days in the office each week and offers a competitive annual salary range of $265,000 to $285,000. The successful candidate will be a strong functional leader, mentor a high-performing clinical operations team, and actively contribute to corporate strategy, fostering collaboration and efficiency across the organization’s clinical development activities.
