You will work closely with Brand teams, BAI PODs, Access, Field Effectiveness, Data Science, Data Management, Legal, Privacy, Compliance, Procurement, and external data partners to ensure Amgen is using the right data, using existing data more effectively, and identifying new data opportunities that can improve decision-making and business impact.

You will also lead forward-looking assessment of a fast-changing external data landscape by tracking market trends, emerging providers, changing access models, and broader ecosystem shifts that could influence future strategy. You will connect these external signals to brand priorities, customer journeys, market dynamics, access considerations, competitive context, and strategic imperatives to inform practical data strategies and investment recommendations. As a strategic partner to the business, this role requires strong analytic framework understanding, executive presence, customer-back thinking, negotiation skills, and the ability to influence across a matrixed organization.
