Moderna Inc. is creating a new role on its executive committee
as it prepares for the launch of multiple new products after the
success of its Covid-19 vaccine.
The biotechnology company said Juan Andres, chief technical
operations and quality officer, will step into a new role as
president of strategic partnerships and enterprise expansion,
effective Jan. 1. He will continue to serve on the executive
committee and report to Chief Executive Stephane Bancel.
In his new role, Mr. Andres will focus on building out the
company to support its growing pipeline, Moderna said.

and will assume the role of chief technical operations and quality
officer on Jan. 1, the company said. He will also serve on the
executive committee and report to Mr. Bancel.
"I am very pleased that Juan will apply his leadership and
experience to allow Moderna to scale in its next phase of growth.
Juan's continued leadership will be critical as we prepare for
several upcoming new product launches," Mr. Bancel said.
