Director / Team Lead, Integrated Insights & Strategy

Role Summary At Pfizer, breakthroughs change patients' lives. In Specialty Care that means people living with rare and serious conditions, from ATTR amyloidosis and hemophilia to atopic dermatitis and vitiligo. Our Integrated Insights & Strategy (IIS) team turns data into the decisions that help these medicines reach the patients who need them, powered by a proprietary, AI-enabled analytics stack few commercial teams can match. As a Team Lead in IIS, you will build and lead the team of strategists behind how these brands grow, and grow the people who do it. Pfizer's Specialty Care Integrated Insights & Strategy (IIS) team is seeking a Director / Team Lead who will build, lead, and develop a brand-aligned pod of strategists and analysts. The team drives commercial brand strategy by framing the business problems, generating the insights and analytics that answer them, and enabling executional excellence. The Team Lead is a trusted thought partner to senior US and Global portfolio and TA leaders, sitting on their leadership teams and bringing analyses that shape portfolio decisions and overarching strategy. Just as importantly, they grow the people: unlocking the team's intellectual and analytical curiosity, fostering a spirit of innovation and out-of-the-box thinking, setting a high bar for quality, and mentoring the next generation of IIS strategists. The ideal candidate is an outstanding people leader with the EQ to build and inspire cross-functional teams and guide the delivery of exceptional strategic consultancy. They bring proven thought leadership in their space, strong entrepreneurial drive, and a well-formed point of view they are not afraid to assert, and they develop that same confidence in their team through consistent mentorship and support. They pair deep analytic command with the presence to partner credibly with senior leaders, and they measure their success by the decisions they shape and the people they grow.
