Director, Commercial Transformation

As Director, Commercial Transformation, you will lead the commercial transformation agenda for EMEA-LATAM, translating strategic priorities, growth opportunities, and complex business needs into clear roadmaps, well-governed initiatives, and execution-ready programs. You will orchestrate cross-functional transformation, create alignment around critical decisions and trade-offs, and maintain momentum from initial framing through implementation and adoption.


More about the role

  • Lead a portfolio of high-impact commercial transformation initiatives across EMEA-LATAM, providing the structure, governance, and cross-functional orchestration needed to turn complex priorities into coordinated action.
  • Translate complex business challenges and strategic priorities into clear transformation roadmaps, workstreams, decision points, resource requirements, and implementation approaches.
  • Identify, shape, and prioritize transformation opportunities based on business value, feasibility, investment requirements, interdependencies, risks, and organizational readiness.
  • Own the Commercial Transformation PMO and its governance framework, including portfolio cadence, milestone tracking, executive reporting, decision preparation, and escalation of risks and issues.
  • Mobilize senior, cross-functional stakeholders across regional functions, clusters, and markets; create alignment on outcomes, scope, ownership, resources, trade-offs, and success measures.
  • Act as a trusted transformation partner to regional and market leadership, bringing together the relevant functional expertise, surfacing cross-functional implications, and enabling timely decisions and coordinated action.
  • Build momentum and organizational readiness for change, ensuring that initiatives are practical, adopted, and embedded rather than remaining at the level of recommendation or design.
  • Transition established solutions to Commercial Excellence or the relevant business owner for ongoing scaling, optimization, and long-term ownership.
