The Skills Development Team within the Worldwide Commercialization Learning Centre of Excellence (WWCL CoE) is the driving force behind empowering our Commercialization colleagues across Commercial, Medical, Market Access, Field, and Head Office functions globally with the functional and specialized skills needed to optimize long-term success for the BMS portfolio. Working in an agile, project-based model, the team delivers best-in-class, scalable learning solutions that keep pace with the evolving needs of the business, powered by LEAP (Learning Excellence & Advancement Partner, Enterprise Learning's Global Capability Centre) and AI-enabled ways of working.

• Support the integration of CASA-aligned AI tools, CRM platforms, and adaptive learning technologies within field or Head Office capability programs as required
• Track and analyze platform adoption metrics and learner data to drive continuous improvement

6. Stakeholder Management & Cross-functional Partnership

• Build and maintain productive relationships with business stakeholders across Commercial, Medical, Market Access, CASA, IT, and In-Market / BU teams to ensure learning integrates effectively with business objectives
