Summary
Operations Project Manager — Data, AI Governance, and Security Initiatives at a Computational Drug Discovery Research Company
The Opportunity
A research organization working with large datasets, AI systems, and sensitive scientific information has to coordinate initiatives that cut across every team: how data is managed and kept compliant, how AI use is governed, how information is secured, and how operational questions are answered with numbers. This role plans and drives those efforts from start to finish, keeping many workstreams aligned so the organization's operations keep pace with its science.
The client is a New York–based research company in computational biochemistry and drug discovery, and this position sits within its Operations team.
What You'll Do
- Plan operational projects that span the whole organization, from scoping through delivery.
- Drive initiatives covering AI governance, data management and compliance, quantitative analysis, and information security.
- Coordinate cross-functional planning so teams stay aligned on priorities and timelines.
- Track progress on organization-wide efforts and surface risks early.
- Partner with stakeholders across the organization to keep commitments clear and work moving.
- Communicate status, decisions, and next steps clearly to colleagues at every level.
What You Bring
- Exceptional intellectual ability, with a strong record of both academic and professional achievement.
- Two or more years of relevant experience in Project Management, coordinating organization-wide initiatives, and Cross-Functional Planning.
- Strong Stakeholder Management, problem-solving, and multitasking skills, along with the ability to work independently.
- Meticulous attention to detail and exceptional organizational ability.
- Outstanding written and verbal communication.
- A resourceful, self-directed approach to work.
- The client weighs intellectual ability and achievement more heavily than experience in any one functional area.
Compensation & Total Rewards
- Expected annual base salary: $150,000–$300,000, set according to factors such as experience and education.
- Sign-on and year-end bonuses as variable pay.
- A generous benefits package with relocation support.

About StaffRight Associates, LLC
StaffRight Associates is a premier recruitment and staffing partner that provides talent to a broad and diverse range of corporate disciplines. StaffRight was crafted out of an industry need to better manage the processes and complexities of today’s recruitment and staffing demands. With company beginnings formulated in the industry over 30 years ago, our founder realized that there was a definitive need to utilize recruitment and staffing more efficiently and effectively than what has been the typical industry standard model. StaffRight is dedicated to servicing our clients with a comprehensive, scientific approach of refining the process throughout our clients' engagements.
Understanding and committing to our employees is critical to the growth and sustainability of StaffRight. We are of the opinion that regardless of their expertise, a successful company needs great people. The success of an employee is realized in a variety of different ways, but for us, we go well beyond one's credentials and interview. Finding the best employees who possess the needed skills, experience, and education are certainly key in a hire, but to truly find great employees who feel they are an integral part of the company, it takes tremendous insight in understanding what makes someone successful. Passion for one’s work, commitment to excellence, and having a ‘get it done’ attitude are essential for a great employee. Having these qualities also goes a long way in ensuring that an employee always has the client's best interests in mind. Great employees are passionate about their work and the company where they hang their jacket. Additionally, we believe that having refined and solid communication skills is also paramount in enabling all employees to work together towards the common goals and successes of the company. This collaboration is very much based on our employees' ability to listen to others and respond effectively, both internally with each other, and externally to our clients.
