Position Summary

This is a high-impact strategy and operations role that sits at the center of one of BMS's most important growth priorities; the build-out of the US Neuroscience marketing organization. This role carries a dual mandate that is both enterprise-facing and brand-specific:

1. US Neuroscience Portfolio Strategy & Operations: Serve as the primary S&O partner to the VP, US Marketing, Neuroscience in building and operationalizing a growing commercial organization. This is a unique and highly visible opportunity to help shape how the Neuroscience team is structured, how it operates, and how it scales across cross-functional brand leadership teams. Responsibilities include establishing ways of working, driving cross-brand synergies across both the Cobenfy and Zeposia franchises, building governance frameworks, and ensuring the organization is fully prepared for future Cobenfy indication launches in Bipolar Disease and Alzheimer's Disease, if approved by the FDA. This work spans psychiatry, neurology, and specialty neurology — and requires someone who can work seamlessly alongside the S&O leads embedded within each brand team, connect across organizational seams, think ahead, and bring structure to complexity.

2. Schizophrenia Strategy & Operations: Serve as the primary S&O partner supporting the schizophrenia business, driving performance management, brand planning, and cross-functional coordination to accelerate growth of this critical foundational indication.
