Lead PDS’s strategic intelligence and insights capability, advancing the organization from passive information collection to proactive, actionable intelligence. This role scans the internal and external environment for strategic signals, synthesizes information across PDS operating units and enterprise partners, and translates emerging trends, risks, opportunities, and interdependencies into clear business implications. By engaging a broad stakeholder network and producing executive-ready analysis, briefings, and recommendations, the role enables senior leadership to anticipate change, align on priorities, and make informed, forward‑looking decisions.

This is an individual contributor role reporting into the Strategic Realization and Governance pillar.

• Strategic Environmental Sensing:
  Monitor internal and external developments including market, geopolitical, regulatory, supply chain, and organizational signals that may affect PDS priorities, performance, and strategic objectives. Establish early‑warning sensing mechanisms that surface emerging issues and opportunities in time to inform proactive leadership action.
• Strategic Synthesis & Cross‑PDS Analysis:
  Synthesize information from across PDS operating units and external sources to identify patterns, interdependencies, risks, and business implications not readily visible within individual functions. Translate complex data, trends, and emerging signals into concise insights, scenarios, and actionable recommendations for leadership decision‑making.
• Stakeholder Engagement & Enterprise Connectivity:
  Build and sustain a broad stakeholder network across PDS, Enterprise Risk Management, enterprise functions, business partners, and the GSC triage team to enable reliable information flow and integrated perspective. Consolidate internal perspectives and external intelligence into a unified strategic picture that supports enterprise alignment and timely escalation.
• Executive Communication & Leadership Briefings:
  Develop executive‑ready briefings, presentations, and decision‑support materials that clearly communicate insights, implications, options, and recommended actions. Support and, where appropriate, directly brief leadership forums, governance reviews, and enterprise discussions, tailoring messaging and level of detail to the audience and decision need.
• Strategic Risk Sensing:
  Assess emerging issues for potential strategic, operational, business, or organizational impact and recommend proactive responses based on observed signals and trends. Partner with Enterprise Risk Management, Strategy, and governance organizations to ensure intelligence outputs are aligned with, and do not duplicate, formal risk management responsibilities.
• Intelligence Products & Continuous Improvement:
  Create standardized, repeatable intelligence products, reporting formats, and analytical frameworks that support recurring leadership reviews and evolving stakeholder needs. Refine sensing methodologies, source networks, and insight‑generation processes to improve the quality, consistency, and usability of intelligence over time.
