• Ensure high-impact delivery, holding regional clusters accountable in ensuring work is insight-rich, strategic, rigorous, and reflective of the high expectations of our customers; further, you will ensure each regional cluster works with their peers across Advisory Services to ensure a consistent and high standard of deliverable quality and customer experience
• Cultivate and nurture top talent, coaching and elevating emerging leaders, providing crisp direction, and creating an environment where teams thrive and grow
• Inform and deepen IQVIA’s Thought Leadership and insight, collaborating with IQVIA’s Thought Leadership organization and front-line practitioners to shape, refine, and communicate strategic insights about critical issues facing our clients
• Influence across the enterprise, collaborating closely with other DTAS leaders, GADs, Client Partners, and senior executives to lead and shape client engagement on priority topics and accelerate impact
• Own your business, delivering on customer revenue and margin targets
• Build and lead a unified global Advisory Services community, fostering collaboration, capability building, and consistency across regions
