This Is What You Will Do

You will analyze business needs to shape data and analytics solutions and ensure their integrity across the full lifecycle, from requirement framing and solution design through validation, onboarding, go‑live, and continuous improvement.

You will act as the business-facing anchor for Advanced Analytics & Data Management within Business Systems, working across commercial teams, Alexion Data Office (ADO), IT, engineering, and data product stakeholders. You will bring structure to business demand, clarity to solution requirements, and discipline to the validation of business-facing outputs.

You will also help the organization evolve how it works. This includes identifying opportunities to streamline workflows, reduce duplication, optimize processes, and apply new technologies, including AI-enabled solutions, where they can add value in a practical, governed, and business-relevant way.
