Recursion Pharmaceuticals, a clinical-stage TechBio company, is seeking an Associate Director of Clinical Supply Chain to lead end-to-end clinical supply operations as the company scales from early exploratory phases into complex, global pivotal trials.
In this role, you will own clinical supply chain strategy for assigned global programs, establishing Phase I/II processes while building infrastructure for large-scale Phase III pivotal trials. You will oversee complex clinical demand forecasting, packaging, labeling, global distribution, logistics, and inventory management as trial footprints expand internationally.

You will create scalable supply chain tools, SOPs, and proactive risk-mitigation strategies capable of supporting registrational trials, flexible protocols, and uninterrupted patient supply.
Reporting to the Director of Clinical Supplies, you will be an essential member of Recursion's Development Team—an empowered, execution-minded group of business development and clinical development professionals responsible for translating innovative science to patients. You will be a crucial driver in maturing operational capabilities as assets progress toward commercialization.
