Signals

⚠ multi-geography mandate across US/UK/NL with unclear primary base
⚠ build-and-scale scope spans strategy, delivery, and governance — broad remit risks under-resourcing
✓ SVP-level reporting line with seat on two leadership teams
✓ clear 2026–2027 roadmap with named high-value initiatives (CAR-T, agentic hubs, in silico design)
