CMC Programs Intern Therapeutics (Tx)

See Yourself at Telix

The Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) Intern will play a hands-on role supporting Telix’s CMC team with external manufacturing and CDMO contracting activities. This includes assisting in the preparation and tracking of work orders, reviewing technical statements of work (SOWs), following up on procurement steps, and managing supporting documentation related to contract execution. The intern will also contribute to the development and maintenance of process flow diagrams for complex radiopharmaceutical supply chains.

This internship provides a unique opportunity to gain real-world experience in pharmaceutical operations and cross-functional project coordination. Interns will gain exposure to how new drugs are manufactured, how CDMO partnerships are managed, and how internal systems support regulatory readiness and product delivery. The role is designed to build skills in operational execution, documentation standards, and supply chain process mapping—all within a collaborative and fast-paced biotech environment.

Key Accountabilities:

• CDMO Contracting Support: Work alongside CMC leads to prepare and revise technical statements of work (SOWs) and draft work orders that define outsourced manufacturing activities.
• Work Order and Purchase Order Coordination: Support the submission, tracking, and follow-up of approvals for work orders and POs. Communicate with vendors and internal stakeholders to ensure execution stays on schedule.
• Business Process Evaluation: Participate in evaluating and mapping existing operational workflows to identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies in contracting and documentation processes.
• Document Reconciliation: Help maintain accurate version control of contracts and reconcile documentation related to budget line items, executed work, and associated invoices.
• System Uploads and Record Management: Upload finalized contracts and related documents to SharePoint and document control systems. Ensure records are filed correctly and remain accessible to the team.
• Meeting Participation and Notes: Attend internal project and CMC meetings to take structured notes, track follow-up actions, and support meeting documentation using shared tools.
• Tool and Template Development: Assist in refining team templates and tools, such as stage-gate trackers, decision logs, and process flow diagrams, to improve clarity, usability, and operational efficiency.
• Final Internship Presentation: Deliver a short presentation at the end of the internship summarizing your work, lessons learned, and suggestions for improving CMC operational support.
