Director, AI Product / Program Facilitator
- United States - Pennsylvania - Collegeville
- United States - New York - New York City
Use Your Power for Purpose
As Director, you turn AI transformation ambition into a running, producing initiative. You own making it real: operationalizing the business case, the outcomes, the business teams you serve, the partnerships, and the hybrid team of people and agents that delivers. You are strategic enough to shape where this goes and hands-on enough to build it yourself. This is not a role you run from a distance. You partner closely with your technical lead, who builds to the direction you set.
Why This Role Matters
Complex AI work moves only as fast as its weakest coordination point. As part of how Pfizer turns its AI ambition into delivered outcomes, you create the operational discipline that lets a small, senior, technical team move at pace without losing control. You sit between strategy and execution and you're accountable for both.
Candidate Profile
You are a commercial operator who is strategic but still produces. You've owned outcomes and cross-functional technical teams, and you're as comfortable in a room with senior leaders and engineering stakeholders. You have deep domain instinct, real AI fluency, and a bias to build
What you will achieve:
1) Vision & Strategy —Know the commercial strategy well enough to judge which problems are worth solving, set the direction for the initiative, and keep the work anchored to the outcomes the business actually cares about.
2) Business Case & Commercial Logic — Build the business case and carry it forward. Size the opportunity, define the bet, and make the call on where to invest and where to stop. You produce this — you don't commission it.
3) AI-First Leadership — Lead this as an AI-first effort, not a conventional program with AI added on top. Push the team to reach for AI where it changes the shape of the work, hold automation and intelligence as the default rather than the exception, and set the ways of working the rest of the portfolio can learn from.
4) Business Outcomes — Own the result and the work that gets there. Tie the initiative to commercial outcomes and drive measurable movement on them. When something isn't working, you're close enough to the work to catch it and change course
5) Hybrid Team & Delivery — Lead a team that is part people, part agents, and produce alongside it. Decide what humans do, what agents do, and how they work together — then build. You set the operating model and you stay in the work
6) Program & Delivery Management — Own the initiative plan and key milestones. Drive cadence and ceremonies, track progress against goals, manage dependencies and critical path, and keep delivery on schedule.
7) Reporting & Communication — Produce clear, honest status for the VP, business sponsor, and governance forums. Maintain the single source of truth on status, decisions, and risks.
Here Is What You Need (Minimum Requirements)
- Bachelor’s degree with at least 8+ years of experience; OR a Master’s degree with more than 7+ years of experience; OR a Ph.D. with 5+ years of experience.
- Experience with program or product management, delivery, or technical program cross-functional team management, including complex multi-stakeholder programs.
- Experience building a business case and operating credibly with executive-level leadership.
- Demonstrated ability to run technical delivery programs end-to-end — plans, milestones, dependencies, and risk.
- Working fluency in AI / technical delivery — able to engage credibly with engineers on what is being built and why.
- Experience coordinating vendors, contractors, and internal teams against scope, schedule, and budget.
- Strong facilitation and stakeholder management, including with senior executives.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; ability to make complexity legible.
Bonus Points If You Have (Preferred Requirements):
- Experience in commercial pharma or regulated environments, and familiarity with promotional-review and compliance workflows.
- Experience with agile delivery and modern program-management and collaboration tooling.
- Exposure to AI- or data-driven products and delivery.
- PMP, agile, or equivalent certification.

Information & Business Tech
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.
