While we work in science, there’s no magic formula to how we do it. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers. Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And that’s the kind of work we want to be part of.\nWe are looking for a Program Integration and Scale up Lead to join our team!\nThe Program Integration & Scale-Up Lead is responsible for integrating and synchronizing the outputs of the Advanced Industry workstreams into coherent, scalable solution packages. The role maintains the integrated view of increment maturity, timing, dependencies and readiness, ensuring that individual workstreams progress in a coordinated way.\nA key responsibility is to aggregate validated increments from pilots, lighthouses and workstreams into larger solution packages and the overall Advanced Industry blueprint, creating transparency on what is ready, what is still maturing and what can be deployed.\nAs a core member of the Advanced Industry Leadership Team, this role is critical to converting individual workstream outputs into an integrated, deployment-ready blueprint and ensuring that proven solutions are carried forward into future capacity investments and network expansion.\nKey responsabilities:\nIntegrated Planning & Increment Synchronization\nMaintain the integrated plan across workstreams, pilots, lighthouses and increments\nSynchronize increment development with the Genesis implementation timeline\nManage cross-workstream dependencies, sequencing and maturity gaps\nMaintain transparency on critical paths, readiness and required decisions\nBlueprint & Solution Aggregation\nAggregate validated increments into coherent solution packages and the manufacturing blueprint\nMaintain a clear view of ready-to-deploy, conditional and developing increments\nEnsure interfaces between manufacturing, technology, data, lab and facility solutions are aligned\nTranslate pilot and lighthouse learnings into reusable requirements and solution packages\nScale-Up & Deployment Readiness\nDefine and maintain deployment-readiness criteria for program increments\nEnsure all ready-to-deploy increments are translated into project requirements\nEnsure mature increments are embedded into upcoming capacity expansions, brownfield projects and new builds\nIdentify gaps between upcoming project needs and the maturity of available Advanced Industry solutions\nPortfolio & Value Integration\nSupport prioritization of pilots, lighthouses and increments based on value, feasibility, scalability and timing\nAggregate increment-level outcomes into an integrated view of expected unit-cost impact\nPartner with Finance & Value Realization to ensure benefits are consistently quantified\nSupport portfolio and investment decisions with an integrated view of readiness and value\nRisk & Stakeholder Integration\nOwn the integrated view of cross-workstream risks and dependencies\nDrive mitigation and escalation of integration, sequencing and readiness risks\nAlign Workstream Leads, Platforms, sites, Engineering and project teams around deployment requirements\nPartner with Program Coordination on governance, reporting and follow-up\nKey requirements:\nBachelor or Master in Business Administration, Operations Management, Program / Project Management, or a related discipline\nHighly experienced in Manufacturing & Business Transformation\nAbility to maintain an integrated plan across workstreams, pilots and lighthouses, assess increment maturity, and manage sequencing, dependencies and readiness against implementation timelines\nAbility to combine validated increments into coherent, reusable solution packages and an integrated Advanced Industry blueprint\nAbility to convert proven solutions and deployment criteria into clear requirements for capacity expansions, brownfield projects and new builds\nStrong understanding of manufacturing operations, engineering delivery, operational excellence and GMP-regulated environments sufficient to connect solution design with site and project realities\nAbility to identify and resolve interfaces, overlaps and constraints across manufacturing, technology, data, laboratory, facility and operating-model solutions.\nAbility to assess increment value, feasibility, unit-cost impact and scalability and use these insights to support sequencing and deployment decisions\nDemonstrated ability to create shared ownership, resolve competing perspectives and influence senior stakeholders across platforms, sites, projects and global functions without relying on direct authority\nAbility to synthesize maturity, dependency, readiness, value and risk information into clear decisions, recommendations and escalations\nEvery day, Lonza’s products and services have a positive impact on millions of people. For us, this is not only a great privilege, but also a great responsibility. How we achieve our business results is just as important as the achievements themselves. At Lonza, we respect and protect our people and our environment. Any success we achieve is no success at all if not achieved ethically.\nPeople come to Lonza for the challenge and creativity of solving complex problems and developing new ideas in life sciences. In return, we offer the satisfaction that comes with improving lives all around the world. The satisfaction that comes with making a meaningful difference.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5511,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["CRO & CDMO Services","APIs & Drug Manufacturing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T20:01:24Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.632,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":11,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-21T05:46:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/lonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/lonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T06:06:54Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":853,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":679681},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=679681"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Flonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Flonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Flonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/lonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Flonza-program-integration-scale-up-lead"}]}
