About
Kurt Harrington
Prior to joining Vault, I served as Senior Director, Marketing at Avanir Pharmaceuticals until its acquisition by Otsuka Pharmaceuticals in 2015 for $3.5B.
Earlier in my career I served in a variety of Marketing, Strategic Planning, and Sales positions of increasing responsibility at AstraZeneca, Biogen, Amylin (acquired by Bristol-Myers), and Cadence Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Mallinckrodt) on drugs such as SEROQUEL®, ZOMIG®, RITUXAN®, BYETTA®, and OFIRMEV®.
The Industry Mover &
Shaker
At Vault, I serve as the Senior Vice President and have the opportunity to lead the team and advise pharmaceutical and biotech companies on setting brand and portfolio global strategy, identify product and financial opportunities for product launch and re-launch / brand optimization, guide new product planning and target product profile development, and evaluate new / emerging market opportunities and life cycle decisions.
I am highly motivated and passionate about helping companies serve more patients. I have an unwavering focus on the customer, an ability to see opportunity where others might not, and a keen ability to simplify complex challenges, turning them into focused, executable solutions.

Final Thought
Outside of work I love spending time with my family at home in Southern California. I love traveling internationally and domestically, the gear, camaraderie, and suffering in the sport of triathlon, playing the guitar, and coaching my boys’ youth sports teams. I love challenging myself to learn new things, which most recently includes learning to skateboard on our new backyard half-pipe.
