Position Summary
This role is the first R&D-focused data governance position within Alkermes’ new Enterprise Data Management function and will play a foundational role in shaping how R&D data is governed, enabled, and scaled across the organization. Reporting to the Executive Director, Enterprise Data Management, you will support the establishment of the new function as well as help to define and operationalize the strategy and operating model that ensure R&D data is trusted, discoverable, secure, and usable across discovery, preclinical, and clinical domains. You will co-develop and operationalize the R&D data vision, multi-year roadmap, and governance framework—including data acquisition, curation, quality, metadata, and access controls—so scientists and analysts can reliably self-serve data while maintaining compliance and integrity. You will partner closely with R&D, IT, and enterprise Data & AI teams to make recommendations, align with functional leaders, and implement scalable data management capabilities that embed governance into day-to-day workflows. In this role, you will serve as a key connector across functions, translating scientific and business needs into recommendations around durable data products, policies, and processes that accelerate decision-making and innovation.
