At Thermo Fisher Scientific, we enable our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner, and safer. Our digital transformation team plays a critical role in delivering scalable, data-driven solutions that improve how our business operates globally.

Role Overview

This role is an execution-first role focused on delivering outcomes as a foundational piece on a growing digital transformation team. You will be responsible for owning progress (not just coordinating activity) and taking hands-on ownership of initiatives from validation through delivery of projects while bringing energy to execution and applying thoughtful problem-solving to drive meaningful outcomes. (You are not expected to define strategy — but you are expected to ensure work gets done.)

What You’ll Do: Key Responsibilities:

-Intake & Validation of Business Requests

• Partner with business SMEs to understand and help define problems that can be addressed through process improvement and automation

• Break down ambiguous needs into structured, actionable components

• Evaluate scope, feasibility, and expected business impact

• Inform prioritization through cost-benefit and effort analysis

• Structure work so its clearly defined and ready for execution

-Own Execution of Approved Initiatives

• Lead end-to-end delivery of digital and automation initiatives

• Develop clear plans, timelines, and milestones

• Manage risks, dependencies, and stakeholder expectations

• Take full ownership of moving work forward, ensuring progress without relying on constant direction or escalation

• Drive urgency and maintain momentum across initiatives

• Ensure solutions are delivered on time, with quality, and achieve intended outcomes

-Structure Work for Execution

• Translate validated business needs into clear, actionable requirements

• Ensure work is well-defined, structured, and ready for execution

• Maintain alignment between business expectations and delivery outcomes

-Process Improvement & Automation Enablement

• Analyze current business processes and identify inefficiencies

• Identify root causes of issues and drive standardization before automation

• Develop and support end-to-end process maps (AS-IS / TO-BE)

• Identify repetitive manual tasks and contribute to automation opportunities

• Ensure solutions focus on simplification and sustainability — not just digitization

-Data-Informed Execution

• Use data (Power BI, Excel, dashboards) to track progress and measure value

• Support cost-benefit analysis and prioritization decisions

• Evaluate tradeoffs based on business value, effort, and impact

-Operate Effectively in Ambiguity

• Work with incomplete or evolving requirements

• Propose solutions and move work forward proactively
