Strategy Insights & Planning****Consultant Strategy Insights & Planning Consultants deliver high-quality solutions for our clients. Consultants possess unstructured problem-solving skills as well as strong analytic, synthesis and communication skills. Consultants may work on multiple projects simultaneously. As Consultants advance in their career, they specialize in a particular industry, practice area and/or client relationship. This is a business advisory role — you will shape how field teams engage with healthcare professionals (HCPs) through CRM and digital tools, translating commercial strategy into technology-enabled outcomes. We are not looking for system administrators or developers. We need consultants who understand the business of field engagement — call planning, account management, territory alignment, rep workflows — and can advise on how platforms like Veeva CRM and Salesforce enable (or constrain) those strategies. You should be as comfortable facilitating a stakeholder alignment session as you are reviewing a CRM configuration spec. What You’ll Do:

• Partner with commercial leadership, field operations, and IT to define CRM strategy that aligns with brand and franchise priorities.
• Facilitate requirements gathering and translate business needs into actionable technology recommendations, bridging the gap between “what the field needs” and “what the platform can do”.
• Develop and present business cases, roadmaps, and governance recommendations to senior client stakeholders.
• Advise on operating model design for CRM support — including roles, responsibilities, and vendor management across internal teams and system integrators.
• Guide the design and optimization of HCP engagement workflows within Veeva CRM (or equivalent), including call planning, sampling, key account management, and coaching tools.
• Evaluate and recommend CRM enhancements, integrations, and extensions that improve field effectiveness — e.g., next-best-action, suggested content, and rep dashboards.
• Assess field force readiness and adoption of CRM tools; design change management and training strategies.
• Support cross-functional alignment between CRM and adjacent capabilities such as data, analytics, and omnichannel orchestration.
• Maintain working fluency in CRM platforms (Veeva CRM, Veeva Vault, Salesforce) — not to build, but to advise intelligently on what is feasible, scalable, and aligned to best practice.
• Evaluate vendor solutions and SI delivery against business requirements; identify gaps and risks before they become issues.
• Stay current on CRM ecosystem trends, pharma-specific regulatory considerations (e.g., consent, compliance, sampling regulations), and platform roadmaps.
• Experience working within a large pharma or biotech commercial organization (Genentech, Roche, Pfizer, Novartis, AbbVie, etc.)
• Exposure to Veeva Vault (PromoMats, MedComms) or Veeva CRM MyInsights / Engage.
• Familiarity with adjacent digital capabilities: marketing automation (SFMC, Adobe), data platforms, or analytics tools.
• Prior experience in operating model design, governance frameworks, or organizational change management
• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders, such as marketing, product, and technology teams, to translate business needs into actionab
