The Clinical Operations Program Head (COPH) is accountable to deliver data-driven, actionable operational and strategic insights for execution of a clinical development program and all associated trials by representing GCO at the Global Clinical Team (GCT) as well as at the Global Program Team (GPT).
The COPH actively contributes to the GPCH’s and GCT’s strategic objective to achieve their own overall accountability for delivering the clinical program. The COPH provides the operational perspective to the Clinical Development Plan and to trial protocol design, ensuring that GCT/GPTs are aware of operational considerations and options, and that these are adequately reflected in planning. The COPH is the single point of contact for a trial/program within GCO and partners closely with key members of the GCT/GPT such as GPCH, GPH and other key communities to ensure best collaboration with operations to drive overall success of our programs and trials.
The COPH leads the GCO sub-team to determine the GCO operational input to planning prior to any given development tollgate and to prepare the Operational Execution Plan (OEP), which is authored and owned by the COPH. The OEP incorporates both data-derived insights as well as country insights which enable informed decision-making, identify complexity, enable the generation of risk mitigation plans to reduce chances of delays, allow easier adaption of actions, and ensure transparency of the GCO operational position and the downstream delivery of program and trial milestones.

4. In partnership with GCPH and other GCT members, actively offer operational insights and options to contribute to the program and trial strategy, in particular with respect to study design and protocol optimization and timelines planning.
5. Leads the GCO sub-team to ensure the creation of best-in-class OEPs and to ensure that progress of the assigned programs and trials is on track and that operational risks are identified and mitigated proactively. The COPH further leads the GCO sub-team to ensure monitoring of the status of the progress of the clinical trials in line with the OEP and to deploy mitigation measures whenever needed to ensure overall trial success.
6. Leads the GCO sub-team taking accountability for the success of the team and of each team member by implementing “agile” and “product-oriented” ways of working.
