What You Will Achieve
The US health system landscape is evolving rapidly. Consolidation and vertical integration among Leading Health Systems (LHSs) highlight the importance of integrated care delivery and population health in a progressively challenging market. As a result, Leading Health Systems are increasingly seeking strategic partnerships that require enterprise capabilities and executive sponsorship. From a Pfizer perspective, this sponsorship serves to further enable Pfizer Inc., current BU Key Account Management teams and other cross-functional teams by working collaboratively to deliver against key priorities across the enterprise. The National Lead for IM Key Account Management will serve to support the sustained momentum of the IM KAM Platform while building an innovative and collaborative approach that further enables each BU to strengthen LHS partnerships, solidify Pfizer as a Partner of Choice and drive results.
The Key Account Management Lead will work cross-functionally, across Pfizer Primary Care Leaders (across Cardiovascular/Migraine/Anti-Viral/Obesity therapeutic areas), to research, develop, manage, and evaluate complementary above-brand engagements, programs, and projects designed to test and identify:
New models for and evolution of care delivery, enabling patient identification, access and activation.
New ways to demonstrate population health outcomes improvement, enabling Pfizer to better understand and impact patient care approaches across clinical development, product launch and complete product lifecycle.
New ways to engage with LHS stakeholders based on Pfizer and / or customer need and Pfizer and / or customer expertise. Examples may include but will not be limited to evolution of care pathway, reaching populations in rural areas, predictive analytics, social determinants and areas of digital innovation.
The Key Account Management Lead will oversee leadership and day-to-day strategic planning to ensure optimal results and provide people leadership across the account team.

A critical component of this role is maximizing the value of the Cardiovascular portfolio—including driving Eliquis utilization and deepening health system partnerships through loss of exclusivity—while simultaneously architecting the commercial and KAM infrastructure to support the successful U.S. launch of Pfizer’s first GLP-1 obesity therapy (anticipated 2028 via the Metsera acquisition). This leader will be instrumental in shaping the health system environment, building the right institutional relationships, and ensuring Leading Health Systems are positioned as committed partners ahead of launch.
The leader will collaboratively work with Medical (i.e. MOS, FMD) Leadership, Sales (i.e. RBD, RM) Leadership, Marketing, Legal, CMO, and multi-stakeholder groups to enable alignment of strategies and approach.
The Lead will oversee a KAM platform focused on continuous improvement measured by clearly defined key performance indicators that serve as benchmarks for success across the Key Account Management team.
The successful candidate will be expected to serve as a Pfizer Key Account Management & LHS expert, develop strong collaboration with the aligned leadership teams, senior global and US leads, and stay closely connected to new LHS initiatives being driven within the business.

Breakthroughs that change patients’ lives
Research confirms what intuition tells us: that purpose-driven companies perform better, are more innovative, attract and retain the best people, and know how to unleash the power of those people. Pfizer’s purpose—Breakthroughs that change patients' lives—fuels everything we do and reflects our passion for building on our legacy as one of the greatest contributors of good to the world.
Each word in our purpose has meaning and reflects the value we strive to bring to patients and society:
“Breakthroughs” - These are the innovations, scientific and commercial, that we seek to deliver every day. All colleagues, regardless of role, level or location, strive for breakthroughs every day.
“Change” - We want to do more than simply improve patients’ medical conditions; we want to dramatically change their lives for the better.
“Patients’ lives” - We consider not only patients, but everyone they touch—including their families, caregivers, and friends—and everything they love to do. It’s an intentionally holistic view.
Our purpose ensures that patients remain at the center of all we do. We live our purpose by sourcing the best science in the world; partnering with others in the healthcare system to improve access to our medicines; using digital technologies to enhance our drug discovery and development, as well as patient outcomes; and leading the conversation to advocate for pro-innovation/pro-patient policies.
Every decision we make and every action we take is done with the patient in mind—and to nurture an environment where breakthroughs can thrive.
Our Values
To fully realize Pfizer’s purpose, we have established a clear set of expectations regarding “what” we need to achieve for patients and “how” we will go about achieving those goals.
The “how” is represented by four simple, powerful values—courage, excellence, equity, and joy—that define our company and our culture.
Courage: Breakthroughs start by challenging convention, especially in the face of uncertainty or adversity. This happens when we think big, speak up, and are decisive.
Excellence: We can only change patients’ lives when we perform at our best together. This happens when we focus on what matters, agree who does what, and measure our outcomes.
Equity: We believe that every person deserves to be seen, heard, and cared for. This happens when we are inclusive, act with integrity, and reduce healthcare disparities.
Joy: We give ourselves to our work, but it also gives to us. We find joy when we take pride, recognize one another, and have fun.
