Senior Director, U.S. Obesity, Portfolio & GTM Strategy

THE OPPORTUNITY

Obesity is one of the most consequential and rapidly evolving therapeutic areas in medicine — and Pfizer is building a differentiated portfolio to meet this moment.

The Senior Director, U.S. Obesity, Portfolio & GTM Strategy is a senior upstream product marketing role responsible for building the commercial foundation for Pfizer's emerging obesity franchise. This leader will define how Pfizer's assets are positioned, how customers are segmented and targeted, and how clinical evidence is translated into compelling brand strategy — all ahead of a landmark US launch.

The role sits at the intersection of science, strategy, and marketing craft. It requires the ability to turn ambiguous data into clear positioning, build cross-functional alignment around a brand vision, and create go-to-market frameworks that are both strategically sound and ready to execute. This is a franchise-defining role for a product marketer who thrives in white space.
