Senior Product Manager

The posting, as Suvoda wrote it

The Senior Product Manager, Clinical Finance is a clinical-finance subject matter expert and product leader who creates meaningful value for sponsors, CROs, and sites. Working closely with the Associate Vice President, Product Management, this role helps set product strategy and roadmap direction across Suvoda’s Greenphire Clinical Finance suite, with primary focus on Budgeting & Benchmarking and Site Payments.

The role brings together clinical pricing, investigator grant budgeting, fair market value benchmarking, sponsor/site negotiation, and payment execution.

The successful candidate will use direct sponsor-side experience to identify customer needs, shape product priorities, and provide initiative-level direction that helps Product Owners and delivery teams design effective software.

The ideal candidate brings deep sponsor-side clinical-finance expertise, hands-on experience implementing technology, and strong software product management experience.

The Senior Product Manager manages and develops Product Owners and partners closely with them throughout discovery and delivery, ensuring they have the customer context, desired outcomes, priorities, and decision support needed to shape effective initiatives and epics.
