Astellas Pharma Canada (APCA) is currently searching for a Digital Strategy & Portfolio Management.

Description
As a member of the Digital Strategy & Portfolio Management chapter of EnableX, you will play a crucial role in supporting the Executive Director in architecting and advancing our digital landscape. Your primary responsibility will be to align strategic vision with agile execution, ensuring that organizational objectives are met. You will merge tactical management with strategic innovation, analysing market trends and leveraging technology to guide our digital trajectory. Additionally, you will contribute to advancing our agile model, fostering a collaborative, improvement-driven culture, and developing digital expertise across the board.

Our agile operating model consists of two components – Digital Capability and Digital Execution. Digital Execution drives alignment of multiple missions around business goals and facilitates collaboration on a larger scale. Digital Capability focuses on the growth and development of individuals within a specific expertise area. This dual structure enables us to scale agile practices efficiently while maintaining a focus on both product development and individual skill enhancement.

Digital Capability consists of several groups, each led by Head of Digital. These groups vary in their specific digital capabilities; for example, one of the groups might specialize in data science. Within each group, there are further subdivisions into smaller groups, each focusing on a more detailed aspect of the capability, such as machine learning and statistical modelling within the data science group. The base of the structure consists of individual contributors who report to the heads of these specialized groups. These individuals execute specific tasks and functions within their area of expertise. The groups in Digital Capability share commonalities in focusing on professional development and skill enhancement while they differ in their areas of expertise, reflecting the specialized skills and roles of their members.

Your primary focus areas will be to support the creation and communication of a digital strategy and to quickly mature Lean Agile Portfolio Management practices within Astellas DigitalX.
