  • Translate patient journey designs into detailed operational process maps, future-state service blueprints, and SOP-level documentation.
  • Design future-state workflows, cross-functional handoffs, escalation paths, and system integration points in close collaboration with CMG and PAA Activation & Capabilities Enablement.
  • Clarify updated role expectations and collaborate with process owners to redesign workflows when new patient experiences require operational change.
  • Partner with internal Genentech teams and external vendors to define operational readiness strategies, including transition planning, training inputs, and communication plans.
  • Evaluate how third-party vendors and customer platforms integrate into existing workflows, defining process-level requirements for vendor onboarding and governance.

Preferred Experience
