Job description


Job Purpose
The Director, R&D - Digital Transformation is a senior leader responsible for defining the digital transformation strategy for the NA R&D organization and building the capabilities required to deliver it. This is a greenfield role, as the Director will establish the vision, design the operating model, and develop the target-state organizational structure and multi-year resourcing plan needed to scale a high-performing, multidisciplinary Digital R&D function. The role will have three to four direct reports to support our digital transformation agenda, with organizational design and hiring owned directly by this leader.
In practice, the Director leads a centralized Digital NA R&D Hub, partnering with the NAZ Platforms, R&D and IT teams to deploy predictive models, AI-enabled tools, advanced data architectures, and digital twin capabilities that accelerate innovation, reduce physical iteration, and shorten time-to-market. This individual will drive the definition, development and adoption of the new digital workflows and ways of working for the R&D Organization. This leader sits at the intersection of food and materials science, process and packing engineering, data science, and manufacturing and will closely collaborate across functions and disciplines to bring the transformation agenda to reality.
Essential Functions & Responsibilities
  • Own the R&D digital transformation agenda. Translate organizational ambition into a phased, prioritized strategic roadmap, defining required capabilities, sequencing investments, and securing senior leadership alignment and resources. Connect the roadmap directly to enterprise value: top-line growth, productivity, sustainability commitments, and time-to-market competitiveness.

Define governance protocols ensuring ingredient specifications, packaging tolerances, sensory data, and process parameters share a universal taxonomy. Establish the data quality standards and ingestion pipelines required to power reliable AI and predictive analytics at scale.

  • Lead development and deployment of physics/engineering/chem-based simulation, machine learning, and generative AI models that predict consumer acceptance/behaviors, formulation performance, process behavior, shelf-life, and packaging integrity prior to physical trials. Define MLOps infrastructure and model governance practices to move from proof-of-concept to production-grade tools. Guide build-vs-buy decisions for digital R&D platforms in partnership with IT

  • Design and operationalize a scalable Hub-and-Spoke engagement model enabling rapid, repeatable adoption of digital tools across Central and Platform R&D teams. Establish workflows, decision rights, and governance mechanisms to support effective collaboration across geographies and disciplines.

  • Recruit, develop, and retain professionals who can translate between scientific problem statements and digital solutions. Champion digital fluency across the broader R&D organization through training, embedded Spoke partnerships, and storytelling that connects digital tools to commercial outcomes.

  • Serve as the senior advocate for digital R&D transformation. Build cross-functional coalitions with R&D, Operations, IT, Marketing, and Quality. Drive adoption through proof-of-concept delivery, measurable value creation, and consistent executive engagement.
