Project Manager, Launch Excellence

Beghou Consulting•Boston, MA

21h•$150,000 - $240,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Beghou brings over three decades of experience helping life sciences companies optimize their commercialization through strategic insight, advanced analytics, and technology. From developing go-to-market strategies and building foundational data analytics infrastructures to leveraging artificial intelligence to improve customer insights and engagement, Beghou helps life sciences companies maximize performance across their portfolios. Beghou also deploys proprietary and third-party technology solutions to help companies forecast performance, design territories, manage customer data, organize, and report on medical and commercial data, and more. Headquartered in Evanston, Illinois, we have 10 global offices. Our mission is to bring together analytical minds and innovative technology to help life sciences companies navigate the complexity of health care and improve patient outcomes. Beghou is building out a dedicated Launch PMO capability within our Launch Excellence practice, and this role sits at the center of it. The Launch PMO Manager is a player-coach position: client-facing, billable, and deeply embedded in active engagements, while simultaneously responsible for designing and continuously improving the processes and tools that make the practice scalable. This person will work closely with Beghou's internal PMO resources to define standards where they apply across practice areas and draw meaningful distinctions where launch-specific needs require a different approach. The right candidate is equally comfortable presenting governance structures to a biotech leadership team and rolling up their sleeves to build the infrastructure behind them. This role picks up at the end of assessment and owns delivery from there -- building the governance infrastructure, running the execution, and developing the team underneath. Over time, this person will become the operational backbone of Beghou's Launch Excellence practice and a key contributor to how we scale the capability across clients.
