Staff (Director), AI Product Management (Global Functions)

Business Introduction GSK remains committed to achieving bold commercial ambitions for the future. By 2031, we aim to deliver £40 billion in annual sales, leveraging our existing strong performance momentum to significantly increase our positive impact on the health of billions of patients globally. Our Ahead Together strategy is centered on early intervention to prevent and alter the course of disease, thereby protecting people and supporting healthcare systems. Our diverse portfolio consists of vaccines, specialty medicines, and general medicines. Through continuous innovation and a dedicated focus on scientific and technical excellence, we strive to develop and launch new, groundbreaking treatments that address critical health challenges. Position Summary GSK's Enterprise AI team exists to translate the promise of AI into measurable impact across every major group at GSK — R&D, Medical, Commercial, Supply Chain, HR, Legal, Finance, and beyond. You will own a major slice of our Global Functions portfolio — across HR, Legal, Compliance, Procurement, Finance, and Corporate Communications — act as the strategic counterpart to the engineers and digital workers in your pod, and set the forward deployed strategy they execute against.   This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who can identify and shape high-value AI opportunities across Global Functions, build the case to fund and deploy against them, prototype hands on, and ensure engineers are working on what matters most. You will not manage engineers; you will shape what they build in your domain and how we measure whether it worked. Forward deployed teams are most powerful when paired with sharp opportunity selection: you will identify, size, and shape the highest-value AI opportunities in your domain, partner daily with engineering leads to scope and steer engagements end-to-end, and build the business and executive alignment the pod needs to land and scale. Responsibilities This role will provide YOU the opportunity to lead key activities to progress YOUR career. These responsibilities include some of the following: • Hunt for high-value AI opportunities across Global Functions — record-to-report, hire-to-retire, source-to-pay, contract-to-signature, and message development and approval — and develop a structured pipeline of AI products ranked by impact, feasibility, and time-to-value. • Quantify value rigorously by building business cases that survive finance and senior business unit scrutiny — cycle time, cost-to-serve, risk reduction, hours returned, and spend under management. • Develop domain pattern recognition in functional workflows — including how work flows between shared services, centers of expertise, and business partners — so you can spot AI-shaped problems the business itself hasn't yet articulated. • Shape the opportunity portfolio in your domain, maintaining a living view of in-flight, queued, and de-prioritized opportunities, with the rationale for each decision, and feeding it into the broader Enterprise AI portfolio. • Make trade-off recommendations — defining success metrics, running the analysis, and recommending where engineers go when business sponsors compete for the same resources. • Push back, with evidence, on opportunities that won't move scalable outcomes, protecting engineering focus. • Be the strategic counterpart to the forward deployed, full-stack, and data engineering leads in your domain, translating ambiguous business problems into crisp problem statements, prototypes, success metrics, and decision frameworks engineers can build against. • Shape engagements end-to-end — defining scope, success criteria, exit conditions, and scaling pathways before kick-off, then staying close as engineers execute. • Surface re-use
