ABOUT WILL COLON

I am a pharmaceutical leader with 20+ years’ experience leading alliance management, asset strategy and global launch execution across life sciences. I specialise in managing strategic partnerships for in-licensed and partnered assets—turning agreements into execution, building governance structures, and maximising asset value through collaboration. My experience spans late-stage development through launch and market expansion, working across pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostics and global health programmes. At GSK and Johnson & Johnson, I have led alliance-driven initiatives across complex stakeholder environments, aligning R&D, Medical, Access and Commercial teams to deliver outcomes across global markets. I am particularly interested in roles that combine partnership leadership, strategic thinking, and cross-functional execution to translate innovation into real-world patient impact.
