Job Description Summary

#LI-Hybrid

The ideal location for this role is the East Hanover, NJ site but remote work may be possible (there may be some restrictions based on legal entity). Please note that this role would not pro-vide relocation as a result. If associate is remote, all home office expenses and any travel/lodging to the East Hanover site for periodic live meetings will be at the employee’s expense. The expectation of working hours and travel (domestic and/or international) will be defined by the hiring manager. This position will require per the manager’s discretion.

The Advanced Analytics & Modeling Center of Excellence transforms complex business questions into scalable analytical capabilities, decision-ready insights, and measurable business im-pact across the US portfolio. The CoE is deliberately flat: a small number of capability Directors, supported by a flexible bench of Associate Director-level Advanced Analytics Leads, working in integrated partnership with the Hyderabad analytics organization.

Reporting into the Executive Director, Advanced Analytics & Modeling, the Associate Director, Advanced Analytics & Modeling is a senior individual contributor on that bench. The role is deployed dynamically across launches, therapeutic areas, and enterprise initiatives in support of the CoE’s capability areas – Promotion Effectiveness, Measurement & Resource Optimization; Key Drivers & Action Planning Analytics; and Predictive Modeling & Precision Health. Each Associate Director holds a primary capability home while maintaining cross-capability flexibility and T-shaped skill development.

This is explicitly not a reactive shared-services or project-management role. The AD operates as an end-to-end analytical engagement lead – accountable from key business question definition through methodology selection, execution, and decision recommendation. The measure of the role is whether business decisions improved, not whether analyses were delivered.

Key Responsibilities

• Member of a bench of five Associate Director-level Advanced Analytics Leads, deployed against priority enterprise, launch, portfolio, and in-market work as directed by the ED and capability Directors.
• Supports three capability areas: Promotion Effectiveness, Measurement & Resource Optimization; Key Drivers & Action Planning Analytics; and Predictive Modeling & Precision Health.
• Holds a primary capability home providing methodological depth, while contributing across the other capability areas as demand and priorities shift.
• End-to-end accountability for assigned analytical engagements – from problem framing through executive-ready recommendation – under the methodological direction of the relevant capability Director.
• Directs and quality-assures analytical execution carried out by Hyderabad team members on assigned engagements; no direct reports.
• Applies and contributes to enterprise analytical standards and reusable approaches; does not set them.
