Shape Pfizer International Commercial Digital & AI portfolio to deliver the strongest possible risk-adjusted return. Give the Investment Committee an independent view of where capital should be committed, continued, redirected or stopped, based on the performance and risk profile of the portfolio as a whole, not only the merits of individual investments. This role holds the financial and portfolio-management integrity of the investment process and works in close partnership with the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE to ensure that measurement frameworks, methods and evidence are rigorous, comparable and decision-ready.
Key accountabilities
- Attach the KPIs for every initiative the Investment Committee considers, using measures already agreed by the organisation and aligned to the KPI Council and leadership cockpit.
- Partner with the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE to define the measurement framework and approach for each proposal.
- Define the budget and expected financial impact of each proposal at the outset.
- Own the independent portfolio audit at three, six and twelve months, drawing on measurement delivered or validated by the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE and other relevant data owners.
- Maintain the benefits ledger: promised value versus verified value, split into verified, written off, not yet audited and overdue.
- Own the portfolio risk-return view.
- Advise the Investment Committee on how to improve the return of the portfolio as a whole.
- Run portfolio scenarios and trade-off analyses.
- Translate performance evidence into active capital reallocation.
- Attach risk to individual decisions and to the portfolio as a whole.
- Own the pillar’s working relationship with the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE.
- Support capital and operating planning: build the capital case and track funded initiatives against the approved plan.
- Own end-to-end programme and project management for value measurement and portfolio review.
Decision rights
- Partners with the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE to establish the measurement framework, approach and value translation for every proposal.
- Determines the independent portfolio-audit conclusion based on the agreed framework and validated evidence.
- Determines the portfolio risk-return assessment and recommends changes in allocation, funding sequence, exposure and continuation.
Required experience and capabilities
- Significant relevant experience in finance, portfolio analytics, corporate planning, performance management, investment analysis, management consulting or a related field.
- Demonstrated ownership of business cases or portfolio decisions that were subsequently audited against realised value.
- Finance-native, with analytical depth and the ability to translate measurement evidence into clear capital-allocation recommendations.
- Comfortable with capital allocation at portfolio level.
- Demonstrated ability to manage value at portfolio level.
- Experienced in working with specialist measurement teams.
- Able to use internal performance evidence alongside external competitive intelligence.
- Independent-minded and able to challenge a senior sponsor when the evidence does not support the claim.
- Able to navigate the GCA International Value & Measurement CoE, Finance, KPI governance, data owners and leadership-reporting structures.
- Strong communicator.
- Experienced in setting standards and influencing resource-allocation decisions across a matrix.
The closing deadline for applications is end of day November 10th.
