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 senior strategist on IIS, you will be the insight-and-analytics engine behind how these brands grow.
Pfizer's Specialty Care Integrated Insights & Strategy (IIS) team is seeking a Director, Integrated Insights & Strategy who drives commercial brand strategy through the insights and analytics that inform it. Working across both marketing and sales for a priority Specialty Care brand or portfolio, this role frames the business problems, delivers the analyses that answer them, and enables competitive decision making.
The Director serves as a trusted thought partner to brand marketing, sales, and portfolio leadership, translating market dynamics, brand performance, field execution, and account intelligence into analyses that shape brand decisions and sharpen competitive advantage. They bring these questions to life with IIS-built capabilities and personally deliver the high-quality, timely insight that moves decisions.
The ideal candidate is a proactive brand consultant with a proven record of framing, designing, and delivering analytic solutions to challenging business situations. They pair in-depth command of multiple analytic disciplines with a sharp sense of what strong, timely insight looks like, and they bring exceptional intellectual and analytical curiosity, a spirit of innovation, and out-of-the-box thinking that drives competitive advantage. A collaborative operator and an outstanding listener, they influence through the quality of their thinking, carry the presence to partner credibly with senior brand and portfolio leaders, and communicate with clarity and impact in writing and in the room.
Why IIS: What You'll Gain

- A real seat at the table. You will partner directly with senior brand, sales, and portfolio leaders as a trusted thought partner rather than an order-taker.
- A culture built on curiosity. We reward the sharper question, out-of-the-box thinking, and genuine intellectual partnership over order-taking.
