Job description

At Bristol Myers Squibb, our employees often ask, “Who are you working for?”—a question that fuels collaboration, accountability, and urgency in our work. Our purpose-driven culture inspires us to discover, develop, and deliver innovative medicines to prevail over serious diseases. We offer uniquely interesting and meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and a supportive environment that values inclusion, wellbeing, flexibility, and comprehensive benefits.

What We Are Looking For

The Worldwide Commercialization Learning (WWCL) Centre of Excellence is seeking an experienced learning leader to serve as Associate Director, WW Medical Skills.

This role is the single point of accountability within the WWCL CoE for the functional and behavioral skills learning strategy across the full Medical Organization, field and home office. This includes the functional skills, coaching capability, and ways of working that sit alongside, and are built on top of, deep therapy area and disease knowledge. Where the Director, Medical Science, Disease & Product (MSDP) owns scientific and disease knowledge content for Medical learners, this role owns how Medical colleagues are equipped to apply that knowledge: field colleagues engaging credibly with Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) and coaching teams to essential BMS competencies, and home office colleagues (e.g., Medical Affairs, Medical Lead, Medical Science Liaison leadership) building the functional and cross-functional skills needed to operate effectively within the New Commercialization Model and beyond.

Within the WWCL operating model the role acts as Learning Partner Lead for the Medical skills portfolio, spanning field and home office, with no direct line management responsibility but access to an allocated pool of Senior Managers within the CoE.
