Challenging. Meaningful. Life-changing. Those aren’t words that are usually associated with a job. But working at Bristol Myers Squibb is anything but usual. Here, uniquely interesting work happens every day, in every department. From optimizing a production line to the latest breakthroughs in cell therapy, this is work that transforms the lives of patients, and the careers of those who do it. You’ll get the chance to grow and thrive through opportunities uncommon in scale and scope, alongside high-achieving teams. Bristol Myers Squibb recognises the importance of balance and flexibility in our work environment. We offer a wide variety of competitive benefits, services and programmes that provide our employees with the resources to pursue their goals, both at work and in their personal lives.

The Opportunity

At Bristol Myers Squibb, we transform patients' lives through science — and great learning transforms the people who make that possible. We are looking for a talented Learning Manager to join our International Commercialisation Learning team, a high-impact function within our global Worldwide Commercialisation Learning (WWCL) organisation. This is a role for someone who thinks strategically, builds collaboratively and delivers with purpose. You will shape how our UK/Ireland commercial field force learns, grows and performs — directly influencing the expertise and capabilities that drive meaningful patient outcomes.

What You Will Do

• You will own the end-to-end learning agenda for UK/Ireland commercial teams, working across Business Units to design, deliver and continuously improve training programmes that are innovative, effective and business-aligned.
• Your remit will span:
• Developing and executing strategic learning plans across all UK/Ireland Business Units
• Designing and delivering training covering disease state, clinical knowledge, product launches, selling skills, coaching and capability building
• Building and evolving learning curricula for field teams and first-line managers, both at induction and at advanced levels
• Acting as a strategic business partner to senior stakeholders, aligning learning solutions to commercial priorities
• Leveraging global resources from the WWCL Centre of Excellence to drive integrated, scalable training with minimal adaptation
• Measuring programme effectiveness using the Kirkpatrick Model and applying insights to continuously raise the bar
• Championing innovative adult learning methodologies and digital platforms to accelerate skill development
• Collaborating with Learning Managers across international markets and project managing key global learning initiatives locally

Who You Will Work With

Reporting to the Commercialisation Learning Lead for UK/Ireland, CEE and TIMER, you will partner with a broad matrix of stakeholders including Sales Management, Marketing, Strategy and Operations, HR, Medical, and external vendors — bringing people together to deliver learning that makes a real difference.

What You Bring

• A Bachelor's degree or equivalent; an advanced degree (MBA, PharmD or similar) is strongly preferred
• 5+ years of pharmaceutical experience, with a proven track record in field learning development and execution
• Experience designing and delivering learning strategies and programmes in a commercial setting
• Solid grounding in adult learning principles and instructional design
• Strong stakeholder management, facilitation and communication skills, with the ability to influence at all levels including senior leadership
• A project management mindset — organised, detail-oriented and comfortable managing multiple priorities simultaneously
• Curiosity, creativity and a drive to innovate in response to an ever-evolving business environment
• Experience working with external vendors and agencies
• A valid passport and willingness to travel occasionally (less than 10%)

If you come across a role that intrigues you but doesn’t perfectly line up with your resume, we encourage you to apply anyway. You could be one step away from work that will transform your life and career.
