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

Education and Experience Requirements:

  • Minimum required Education and Experience:

    • High School Diploma/ GED with 4+ years of experience in project delivery, digital initiatives, or process improvement

    • Bachelor’s degree in business, operations, information systems, or related field with 2–5 years of experience in project delivery, digital initiatives, or process improvement

  • Proven experience owning delivery of cross-functional initiatives

  • Experience with project management tools (e.g., Jira, Smartsheet, or similar)

  • Experience working in matrixed environments is a plus

  • Exposure to Power Platform or similar tools is a plus

  • Experience with data tools (Power BI, Excel) is a plus

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

  • Strong execution mindset with ability to drive work forward independently

  • Ability to structure ambiguous problems into clear, actionable plans

  • Strong communication skills — clear, concise, and structured

  • Strong analytical and quantitative skills

  • Data fluency to inform decisions and measure outcomes

  • Strong root cause analysis and problem-solving capability

  • Ability to influence stakeholders without formal authority

  • Strong presentation skills with the ability to communicate insights clearly

  • Ability to manage complex situations, identify risks, and drive resolution

  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
