What are the responsibilities and job description for the Manager, Supply Chain Planning position at Aktis Oncology Inc?
Aktis Oncology, Inc. is a clinical-stage oncology company focused on expanding the breakthrough potential of targeted radiopharmaceuticals to large patient populations, including those not addressed by existing platform technologies. Aktis’ most-advanced program, AKY-1189, is a miniprotein radioconjugate targeting Nectin-4, with multi-indication potential across multiple tumor types, including locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer, breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical cancer, and head and neck cancer. Aktis’ second pipeline program, AKY-2519, is a miniprotein radioconjugate targeting B7-H3 expressing tumors, including prostate, lung and other solid tumors. Aktis has a strategic collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company to leverage its miniprotein platform to develop novel radioconjugates outside of Aktis’ proprietary pipeline.
The Manager, Supply Chain Planning, will be responsible for end-to-end planning for the production of Aktis investigational products (theragnostic). Accurate planning is critical in radiopharmaceutical development, where isotope half-life, production constraints and patient scheduling create narrow operational windows. This role ensures that supply capacity meets the demand and enables the organization to make informed business decisions about capacity, investment and program prioritization.
The successful candidate should enjoy working in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment and be prepared to tackle a broad selection of challenges as the company grows.
