ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES
Regional Portfolio Performance
- Deliver net revenue results across the full IMB portfolio in the eastern region: Nurtec ODT, Zavzpret (migraine franchise), Eliquis (CV), and Paxlovid (antiviral).
- Co-own national portfolio performance as part of a unified enterprise scorecard with the IMB West VP and CEP Lead; IC driven primarily by national results.
- Develop and execute regional business plans aligned to national IMB strategy; identify and act on performance gaps and opportunities through RBDs.
- Manage expense base and resource allocation with discipline; build business cases for differential investment against highest-impact opportunities.
- Monitor field execution through dynamic targeting, call planning, and promotion standards across the cross-portfolio CV/Neuroscience model.
Co-Ownership of National IMB Enterprise
- Act as co-owner of the Integrated Medicines Business nationally — geography defines execution scope, not strategy.
- Jointly own decisions pertaining to national CEP strategy (training, Field IC, POA planning, ABM/rep expectation-setting) in partnership with the CEP Lead and IMB West VP.
- Co-own brand relationships at the VP level, pre-aligning prior to any brand escalation, and ensuring one consolidated sales voice to marketing partners.
- Participate in joint brand reviews and Control Tower sessions.
- Contribute to the annual strategic roadmap and governance cadence including weekly VP Operating Syncs, quarterly Integrated QBRs, and national sales meetings.
People Leadership & Talent Development
- Lead, coach, and develop five RBDs as portfolio general managers — accountable for multi-franchise execution, promotion standards, ABM coaching, and district-level performance across both the Neuroscience and CV sleeves.
- Drive talent strategy across the eastern organization: identify high-potential colleagues, build succession pipelines, and champion cross-regional movement to reinforce one unified IMB culture.
- Hold RBDs accountable for consistent ABM coaching on portfolio fluency and district P&L thinking.
- Establish and sustain a high-performance, inclusive culture in line with Pfizer values; lead engagement efforts in partnership with the IMB West VP to prevent siloed regional identity.
- Performance measures: Pfizer PULSE engagement scores, GROW/IDP completion, talent movement, succession depth.
Brand Partnership & Cross-Functional Leadership
- Engage directly with brand leads for Nurtec ODT, Zavzpret, Eliquis, and Paxlovid — co-owning the brand relationship at the VP level rather than splitting ownership by geography.
- Serve as the field voice of the customer; continuously share eastern market insights, HCP dynamics, and competitive intelligence to inform brand strategy and marketing tactics.
- Collaborate with the Enablement Lead, Operations Team Lead, CEP Strategy & Business Operations Lead, and cross-functional partners (Medical, Legal, Compliance, PCA, Finance, HR, Digital) to ensure field-facing solutions are fit-for-purpose.
- Lead compliance and risk management: ensure eastern field force adherence to all Pfizer policies, legal requirements, and promotion call standards.
Future Portfolio Readiness — Obesity & GLP-1
- Actively build organizational readiness for the anticipated launch of Pfizer's first GLP-1 asset in the obesity/chronic weight health space.
- Preserve and strengthen CV HCP relationships across the eastern region as a critical bridge toward the obesity launch.
- Develop and share regional insights on obesity market dynamics, HCP prescribing behavior, and payer landscape to inform pre-launch planning.
- Partner with CEP Lead and brand teams to scenario-plan field force evolution, capability investments, and territory design ahead of the obesity launch window.
