Senior/Director, Program Management

Join Us in Tackling Autoimmune Disease at Its Root

At Vor, we believe science can do more than manage symptoms. It can change the course of disease. By advancing telitacicept, a first- and potentially best-in-class dual BAFF/APRIL inhibitor, we are silencing upstream survival signals and stopping downstream autoimmune cascades. Together, we are addressing disease at its root cause and rewriting what is possible for patients worldwide.

When you join Vor, you’re not just working on a medicine. You’re part of a mission to redefine the future of autoimmune care.

Why Work at Vor?

Impact: Contribute directly to a medicine with best-in-disease Phase 3 results in myasthenia gravis and expansion into multiple autoimmune diseases.

Growth: Be part of a rapidly scaling company with opportunities to grow your career in science, clinical development, commercial strategy, and beyond.

Innovation: Work on a platform with potential beyond one indication — a therapy that has already shown consistent results across lupus, IgA nephropathy, and Sjögren’s syndrome.

Belonging: Join a culture where every voice is heard, and where our shared mission unites us across functions and geographies.
