General Description:

The Associate Director, Strategy & Operations will report to the Chief of Staff to the North America General Manager and serve as a strategic partner to the North America leadership team, helping advance the organization’s highest-priority business initiatives.

The ideal candidate brings experience in management consulting, strategy, business transformation, program management, or a similar internal strategy and operations role within pharmaceuticals or biotechnology. This individual should be equally comfortable developing an executive‑level recommendation, facilitating a leadership working session, and rolling up their sleeves to ensure an initiative is delivered successfully.

The role will also contribute to emerging North America capabilities, including digital transformation, omnichannel execution, and AI‑enabled ways of working.

• Partner with cross‑functional stakeholders across North America, including Medical Affairs, Market Access, Marketing, and Corporate Affairs, to align projects with organizational goals, maintain momentum, and ensure delivery within scope and budget.
• Identify interdependencies, barriers, and emerging risks across initiatives and work with stakeholders to develop solutions; monitor business impact and recommend adjustments as priorities or market conditions evolve.
• Serve as a thought partner to the Chief of Staff, GM Office, and North America leaders on priority business topics.
• Design and facilitate strategic working sessions that enable leadership teams to solve problems, align around decisions, and accelerate action.
• Develop clear, concise executive‑level presentations and communications that synthesize complex business issues and recommendations.
• Champion AI enablement across North America commercial and medical functions, identifying and implementing AI‑powered tools and workflows that improve productivity, decision‑making, and customer engagement, and partnering with relevant teams to scale adoption.
• Support digital initiatives, including digital channel strategy, omnichannel execution, and emerging promotional technologies to advance the North America commercial and medical agenda.
• Identify opportunities to improve how the North America organization operates, including new processes, capabilities, and ways of working.
• Help foster a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, and disciplined execution.

Education Required:

Bachelor’s degree in business, life sciences, economics, finance, marketing, or a related discipline; MBA or other advanced degree preferred.

Required Qualifications:

• BA/BS degree with 8+ years of relevant professional experience.
• Experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, business transformation, commercial strategy, program management, or a comparable strategy and operations role strongly preferred.

• Demonstrated ability to structure ambiguous business problems, conduct analyses, generate insights, and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
• Demonstrated track record leading complex cross‑functional initiatives and managing project plans, milestones, timelines, budgets, dependencies, and risks in a highly matrixed organization.
