About the Role:

Hims & Hers is seeking a dynamic and detail-oriented R&D Innovation Program Manager to oversee and coordinate innovation-focused R&D projects for our 503a and 503b compounding pharmaceutical facilities. This mid-level role will be responsible for managing project timelines, resource allocation, and team collaboration to ensure successful execution of cutting-edge research and development initiatives. 

This role will support both the Innovation R&D team and will be embedded within the fast-growing Operations & Innovation Program Management Office (PMO), reporting to the Director of Innovation Program Management (PMO).

The ideal candidate has exceptional written and verbal communication, strong project management skills, an understanding of R&D and innovation processes within compounding, pharma, cosmetics, OTC, or supplements, a positive and solutions-oriented thinker, and the ability to work in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.

• Maintain Project Plans: Build and manage detailed timelines and schedules, coordinating deliverables across R&D, Engineering, Operations, Product, Quality, Supply Chain, and Marketing teams.

• Facilitate Team Communication: Schedule and lead meetings, track action items, and share status updates to help ensure project clarity and transparency across stakeholder groups.

• Monitor Progress and Risks: Track project performance against key milestones, flag potential delays or bottlenecks, and work with stakeholders to help resolve issues efficiently.

• Ensure Cross-Functional Collaboration: Liaise between departments to keep project teams aligned on scope, goals, and execution needs — especially when supporting innovation efforts that require cross-team input and signoff.

• Standardize Innovation Workflows: Support the development and refinement of project management templates, tools, and best practices to improve team efficiency and repeatability.

• Support Launch Coordination: Help organize and track the cross-functional work required for launch readiness, including documentation, training materials, and internal communication.
