About this opportunity

ROLE SUMMARY

At Pfizer, we have an aspiration to develop world-class capability for commercial customer-facing colleagues and leaders through the new CFC Capabilities & Commercial Enablement organization. Within it, the Learning Effectiveness, Architecture & Products team connects every learning program, product, and platform into one cohesive, measurable system, meeting customer-facing learners where they are and ensuring every learning experience ladders to business impact.

The Learning Effectiveness & Impact Director is responsible for driving the measurement and impact agenda across the learning portfolio. This role acts as a primary effectiveness and impact resource for the business, partnering with training, enablement, and commercial leaders to pre-define success measures for each program based on learning objectives and value drivers, shape and uphold the impact methodology and metric standard, and lead the behavior- and business-level studies that prove what learning changes. The Director carries the evidence narrative to senior leadership, translating complex learning impact data into clear insight that drives pull-through opportunities, program optimization, and investment decisions across the portfolio, with coverage priorities shaped collaboratively as the capability grows and the work evolves.

The role works closely with the Team Lead, and cross-functionally with commercial leaders, business analytics, commercial effectiveness, and digital partners to connect training measures to the analytics the business already runs on, core product and role goals, KPIs, and customer measures. This strategic leader will operate in a matrixed environment that requires agility, the ability to see patterns, and modeling “lightspeed” behaviors. The individual should possess a combination of strategic thinking, analytical expertise, and excellent communication and presentation abilities to help the team achieve our broader capability aspiration, deliver on our mission and vision, and support aligned business revenue targets.

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

Drive the design and implementation of the training measurement strategy across the learning portfolio, using both standard and novel analytics, content performance, field and launch readiness, upskilling and bench-strength insight.

Shape and uphold the impact methodology and metric definition, what readiness means, what a score means, and how impact is proven, as one standard across the portfolio.

Lead behavior- and business-level study designs for priority programs, partnering the Learning Impact Analyst on execution.

Partner the Learning Architecture Lead to define success measures for each initiative and validate the correlations between learning, competency attainment and business outcomes.

Carry the evidence narrative and integrated scorecard to senior leadership with clear, actionable recommendations that inform program optimization and investment.

Represent measurement in planning and prioritization conversations so evidence shapes the portfolio, with coverage priorities developed collaboratively as the work progresses.

Build the measurement practice, standards, instruments, and development of analytical talent, so the capability strengthens over time.

Candidate demonstrates a breadth of diverse leadership experiences and capabilities including: the ability to influence and collaborate with peers, develop and coach others, oversee and guide the work of other colleagues to achieve meaningful outcomes and create business impact.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

How we calculate "similar"

No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.

Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.

Unmatched or unknown dimensions score exactly the same: 0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
