The Global Data, Digital & AI (GDDA) organization plays a central role in Roche Pharma Commercial's digital and AI ecosystem. GDDA sets the enterprise digital strategy, translates commercial objectives into a coordinated portfolio of investments, and defines the standards and operating model that enable scalable execution across programs and products. By connecting strategy, portfolio, standards, programs, and products, GDDA ensures that data, digital, and AI capabilities are delivered as scalable, enterprise solutions that drive adoption and improve outcomes for patients, healthcare providers, and the broader healthcare ecosystem.

The Portfolio Governance & Integration Lead is the cross-organizational coordination and governance lead for GDDA's digital portfolio. Reporting to the Head of Digital Portfolio Management & Operations, this role ensures that portfolio priorities, decisions, and trade-offs are aligned across the organizations GDDA depends on - including Pharma International (PI), Global Product Strategy (GPS) / US Commercial, Medical & Government Affairs (CMG), Roche Digital Technology (RDT), and Data, Digital, Analytics (DDA) - and that decisions made in portfolio forums translate into clear actions, owners, and follow-through.

This role owns the interfaces and governance mechanisms that make portfolio decisions executable. It manages the relationships, cadences, decision logs, escalation paths, and cross-functional alignment required to keep portfolio priorities moving through a complex matrix. The role requires strong operational discipline, stakeholder judgment, and the ability to influence without direct authority.

Act as GDDA's primary operating interface for portfolio-related coordination with PI, GPS / US CMG, RDT, and DDA. Maintain active relationships with partner organizations to understand priorities, constraints, dependencies, and decision needs that affect GDDA's portfolio. Ensure partner inputs are gathered, structured, and brought into GDDA's portfolio planning and governance processes at the right time. Identify where partner priorities, timelines, resources, or standards create dependencies or conflicts that need active coordination.

Represent GDDA's portfolio perspective in cross-organizational forums, ensuring consistent messaging on priorities, constraints, and decision rationale.

Maintain governance cadences and artifacts that support portfolio decision-making - including meeting rhythms, decision logs, escalation pathways, and status reporting templates - ensuring the infrastructure for transparent investment oversight is consistently in place. Run the operating mechanics of portfolio governance, including meeting cadences, agendas, pre-reads, decision logs, action trackers, escalation pathways, and follow-up routines. Ensure portfolio decisions are documented with clear owners, actions, timelines, and implications across GDDA and partner organizations.

Track follow-through on commitments made in governance forums and elevate unresolved items when decisions are not landing. Maintain the governance infrastructure required for transparent investment oversight and cross-functional accountability.

Ensure decisions made within GDDA are translated into execution expectations across PI, GPS / US CMG, RDT, DDA, and other partner teams. Partner with the Portfolio Planning Lead to connect governance outputs and stakeholder commitments back into the integrated portfolio view. Support cross-product and cross-organization integration by identifying where timing, ownership, standards, or capacity issues require active coordination. Help maintain a "city map" of digital activity across GDDA's ecosystem by ensuring partner activities, governance decisions, and execution dependencies are visible and connected.
