  • Design new delivery approaches, guiding a core transformation team to support broader business transformation.
  • Track progress, remove roadblocks, and ensure successful delivery.

What you will bring to the role

  • Proven experience leading large-scale digital programs in health or life sciences.
  • Track record of building collaborative partnerships and driving transformation.
  • Expertise in enterprise and technology architecture strategy.
  • Inspirational leadership with resilience and the ability to guide teams through change.
