Job Description
Johnson & Johnson is currently recruiting the best talent for a Director, Congresses and Campaigns. This position will sit in our New Brunswick, NJ office on a hybrid work schedule.
Key Responsibilities
The Director, Congresses and Campaigns will lead global strategy, planning, and execution for priority scientific congresses and integrated campaigns across Innovative Medicine. Positioned within the Performance Accelerator, this role ensures that major moments of external visibility—such as medical congresses, disease awareness initiatives, and multi‑market campaigns—are strategically aligned, operationally efficient, and implemented with consistency and impact across geographies.
This leader partners with Therapeutic Area teams, Public Affairs, and regional CPA leads to elevate execution quality while reducing duplication and complexity.
The Director, Congresses and Campaigns exists to drive strategic consistency, scale, and execution excellence for major external moments—such as global congresses and integrated campaigns—across therapeutic areas and geographies. This role does not replace Therapeutic Area ownership of scientific content, disease narratives, or collaborator priorities, but instead provides central strategy, frameworks, toolkits, and orchestration to ensure that congresses and campaigns are aligned, impactful, and efficiently driven worldwide. By standardizing approaches and enabling reuse of high‑value assets, the role allows TA teams and markets to focus on content depth and local relevance while benefiting from a coordinated, enterprise‑level execution model.
The Director, Congresses and Campaigns is the DRI for global congress and campaign strategy, execution frameworks, asset models, and governance, including the orchestration of priority global moments. Therapeutic Area teams are the DRIs for scientific strategy, disease‑specific narratives, and content direction, while regional and market teams are accountable for local execution and stakeholder engagement. The Congresses and Campaigns lead owns how major moments are structured, enabled, and amplified globally, not the ownership of TA content or local delivery.
