About Serena Casanova

Experienced professional in product lifecycle management, technical leadership, and regulatory compliance, with a strong background in the pharmaceutical and industrial sectors. I bring a cross-functional mindset, combining product development expertise with strategic execution to deliver high-quality, compliant, and innovative solutions to global markets. Currently serving as Product Center Manager within the Global Product Center & Risk Management (IC) organization, I support both new and mature product portfolios across all markets. My focus is on enabling timely project execution, ensuring regulatory compliance, and optimizing cross-functional collaboration to maintain the highest standards of safety, efficiency, and quality. Previously, as a Technical Leader for Customer-Driven Projects in Drug Containment Systems, I led technical project management activities with a strong emphasis on stakeholder engagement, milestone tracking, and robust documentation. I was accountable for design control, resource allocation, and validation processes—championing a "Right First Time" mindset in every phase of execution. I began my career as a Product Developer, working with cross-functional teams to design safe and effective industrial products. In this role, I collaborated closely with clients to transform needs into technical solutions, conducted feasibility studies, and applied data-driven quality tools to foster innovation. Passionate about delivering value through structured processes, data-driven decisions, and cross-functional leadership, I am committed to advancing products that make a difference in people’s lives—safely, efficiently, and compliantly.
