Join the global leader shaping the future of PET imaging.
At Siemens Healthineers, we operate the world’s largest PET radiopharmaceutical network — delivering over 1 million doses annually with a >99% fulfillment rate and supporting more than 2,800 imaging centers worldwide.
The position is responsible establishing and maintaining alignment between the 3rd party drug sponsor and key PETNET functional teams to drive alignment of key goals and metrics between centralized and decentralized operational activities. Responsibility also includes the ability to influence across the PETNET organization (Operations, Engineering Services, QA/QR, and others) and build effective relationships both internal and external and interface with senior management and 3rd party drug sponsors.
This position is primarily hybrid and based in Knoxville, TN. However, remote candidates may be considered for the right individual, with the expectation of frequent travel to Knoxville, TN.
Specific Responsibilities:
Daily Operations: Coordinating and driving day-to-day contract manufacturing activities including contact performance metric harmonization across participating PETNET pharmacies while capturing data trends and communicating KPI’s to enhance efficiencies and customer experience.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with internal PETNET teams to align priorities, while communicating customer-facing values to support future growth. The candidate must possess strong interpersonal influence to rally internal teams—such as Operations (production schedules and equipment uptime), and QA/QR (Quality Assurance and Regulatory Compliance)—to prioritize the sponsor's portfolio on an individual state by state basis.
Project Implementation and communication skills: Driving the launch and integration of new products and new contract manufacturing partners within the PETNET network while growing the legacy business. Ability to translate complex operational risks, timeline delays, or regulatory hurdles into concise, strategic updates for PETNET executives and high-stakes 3rd party radiopharmaceutical sponsors.
Lifecycle Management: Maintaining and continuously improving processes for both externally manufactured and contract-manufactured products. Demonstrating industry knowledge where the competitive landscape and important trends are identified.
