• Manage publishing vendor activities to support the preparation of high-quality submission packages and their timely delivery to health authorities.

• Effectively communicate project status, issues, schedules and accomplishments to management and stakeholder groups as required.

• Maintain technical expertise in regulatory requirements, ensuring alignment with Moderna processes and applicable client requirements.

• Act as a subject matter expert for Moderna’s document management system.

• Compile regulatory submissions and coordinate their distribution to all relevant parties, including health authorities and CROs, within agreed timelines.

• Manage submission and product lifecycle information throughout the regulatory process.

• Lead and manage special projects as required, bringing together stakeholders across Regulatory, Clinical, Nonclinical and other functions.

• Apply strong document formatting and troubleshooting capabilities across Microsoft Word and PDF Professional and use Microsoft PowerPoint to support effective stakeholder communication.

• Work within Moderna’s digital-first environment, gaining exposure to Generative AI tools and considering appropriate opportunities to enhance the efficiency and quality of regulatory operations while preserving regulatory compliance and human oversight.
