Position Summary

The Regulatory Tactical Manager is the operational engine of the Mexico regulatory function: it converts approved strategy into executable tactical plans, operates the day-to-day project governance mechanics (trackers, cadences, escalation logs) that support the Country Head's governance model, and provides hands-on technical execution - including direct dossier compilation support and technical/tactical guidance to third parties (distributors, licensing partners) responsible for local submissions. The role is also the function's operational owner for AI-enabled tools and digital automation, embedding practical use cases into daily regulatory work.

Duties/Responsibilities

• 1) Project & Portfolio Governance (Execution Layer) Own and operate the day-to-day governance mechanics - trackers, milestone dashboards, escalation logs - that put the Country Head's single-threaded governance model into practice for the assigned portfolio. Track dependencies, risks, and milestones across the portfolio, flagging deviations early enough for tactical correction before they require executive escalation.
• 2) Dossier Technical Execution & Third-Party Tactical Guidance Provide hands-on technical compilation support for dossiers (new registrations, renewals, variations, CMC changes), assembling and quality-checking content against COFEPRIS/eCTD requirements ahead of Senior Manager review. Act as the direct technical and tactical point of contact for third parties (distributors, licensing partners, external dossier compilator) responsible for local submission, guiding them on format, documentation completeness, and procedural requirements to prevent rework and delays. Escalate technical or strategic gaps identified during third-party interaction to the Senior Manager for resolution.
• 3) Tactical Planning & Submission Management Translate regulatory strategy approved by the Senior Manager/Country Head into detailed tactical project plans, timelines, and critical paths for filings, approvals, line extensions, renewals and variations. Own the tactical planning and orchestration of the registration and submission calendar for assigned product(s), consolidating renewal deadlines, variation triggers, and new registration timelines into a single portfolio view. Maintain a single source of truth for registration and lifecycle status across BMS RIM and other systems, ensuring data integrity for portfolio-level decisions.
• 4) AI & Digital Enablement Serve as the function's operational owner for AI-enabled tools and automation supporting regulatory intelligence, drafting support, and submission quality checks - administering day-to-day use, maintaining data hygiene in BMS RIM, and troubleshooting adoption issues. Identify and pilot practical AI/automation use cases at the execution level (e.g., dossier QC, tracking, intelligence synthesis), packaging results into recommendations for the Senior Manager/Country Head's capability roadmap; does not own the strategic technology roadmap or budget. Train and support team members and third-party partners on adopting AI-enabled tools and workflows.
• 5) Cross-Functional Coordination Act as project manager for Advertisement/Promotional Materials and artwork/labeling processes, coordinating dependencies across Regulatory, Marketing, Medical, Legal and Quality. Serve as the day-to-day operational point of contact for cross-functional partners on regulatory timelines and dependencies; strategic or senior-stakeholder representation remains with the Senior Manager/Country Head.
• 6) Team Contribution & Development Share regulatory, project-management, and technical dossier best practices with peer analysts; act as a proactive, well-respected team resource. Support the development of analyst-level colleagues on tactical planning, technical execution, and AI-tool adoption.
