Job Function: Human Resources Job Sub Function: Learning & Instructional Design Job Category: People Leader All Job Posting Locations: Horsham, Pennsylvania, United States of America, Titusville, New Jersey, United States of America

Job Description: The Competitive Portfolio Partner develops and manages the competitive engagement assets and programs that drive commercial performance across the J&J IM — for example, an Advanced Selling Academy or a MOSAIC Competitive Selling build. This is visible, high-stakes work that connects directly to how J&J commercial teams compete and grow. Partnering closely with the Portfolio Lead, this role carries an assigned area from scope through launch to measurement: developing content, safeguarding accuracy and compliance, meeting committed timelines, and integrating field feedback to sustain relevance and impact. The Portfolio Partner is a trusted operational owner who runs an assigned area of the portfolio independently and surfaces the decisions, risks, and trade-offs that warrant the Portfolio Lead's attention — with real room to lead, build, and leave a fingerprint on programs that scale across functions.

Key Responsibilities

• Own an assigned workstream(s) end to end. Manage a designated course or module from scope through launch and measurement, coordinating SMEs and facilitators and delivering against committed timelines. Ensure content integrity and compliance. Maintain rigorous oversight of quality standards, ensuring all learning offerings meet the accuracy, documentation, and compliance approval processes/requirements of a highly regulated life sciences environment. Provide subject‑matter input. Apply deep domain knowledge to guide content decisions, interpret business developments into portfolio implications, and facilitate learning interventions within the assigned area.
• Program Management: Sustain the measurement strategy end to end. Define success metrics and baselines pre‑launch, then track, analyze, and report performance post‑launch — including usage and adoption rates.
• Own program adoption and logistics. Drive enrollment, scheduling, and end‑to‑end coordination for programs and cohorts — managing rosters, facilitators, and communications to ensure a seamless learner experience and strong uptake. Maintain metadata and taxonomy integrity. Uphold accurate tagging and metadata to support reliable mapping, searchability, reporting, and day‑to‑day data quality.
• Lead workstream communications. Own the communication strategy for the assigned workstream — translating portfolio direction into clear, timely messaging that drives alignment, adoption, and action across Sales, Medical, KAM, FRM, and Marketing stakeholders. Identify gaps and lifecycle opportunities. Surface overlaps, unmet needs, and retirement candidates, supported by performance data and field insight, and provide informed recommendations. Escalate risks and issues appropriately. Raise portfolio‑level risks, quality concerns, and matters requiring cross‑portfolio coordination or leadership attention ahead of impact.
• Represent the assigned workstream(s) in key forums. Support in speaking for the assigned area(s) in governance discussions and cross‑functional planning, driving alignment and ensuring follow‑through on actions.
• Support time‑sensitive business requests. Respond to urgent leadership and launch needs, and conduct post‑implementation reviews to capture learnings and inform continuous improvement.
• Strengthen team effectiveness. Contribute through knowledge sharing, onboarding, and peer collaboration to promote consistency and operational continuity across portfolios.

Core Competencies / Personal Attributes

• Forward Thinking & Innovation: Anticipates future business and learning needs, brings a proactive, future-oriented mindset, and continuously evolves the portfolio ahead of demand.
• Sales Expertise & Sales Leadership: Draws on strong first‑hand sales and sales leadership experience to ground content in field reality and lead with credibility across commercial audiences.
• Matrixed Collaboration: Operates effectively within a complex, matrixed organization, partnering across functions, TAs, and portfolios to drive alignment without direct authority.
• Technical Proficiency: Applies strong computer and digital skills across portfolio tools, platforms, and reporting systems, with a commitment to adopting emerging technologies.
• Portfolio Ownership & Execution: Independently manages workstream performance, risks, dependencies, and lifecycle actions with minimal oversight.
• Prioritization & Judgment: Weighs demand, value, and constraints to make sound recommendations on enhancements, sequencing, and retirements.
• Stakeholder Relationship Management: Builds and sustains trusted relationships across business stakeholders, SMEs, and cross‑functional partners.
• Communication & Influence: Clearly conveys priorities, changes, and recommendations to drive alignment and prompt action.
• Strategy Translation: Converts portfolio direction into actionable plans, curriculum updates, and governance activities.
• Business & Domain Expertise: Applies strong subject‑matter knowledge to evolving business needs and learning priorities.
• Curriculum & Pathway Management: Exercises sound judgment on curriculum structure, progression, and learning pathways.
• Governance & Metadata Management: Ensures adherence to governance, taxonomy, and quality standards for reliable reporting and usability.
