Shape the future of AI-powered procurement and help drive change for lasting health. As AI Business Solutions Lead, you will work at the intersection of business strategy, technology and innovation, partnering with senior leaders to identify where AI can accelerate decision-making, improve operational performance and create measurable business value. Your impact begins today by transforming complex business challenges into scalable AI-enabled solutions that support Novo's ambition to reach more patients and improve more lives.
As AI Business Solutions Lead, you will own and drive the AI agenda within Global Direct Procurement. Working closely with procurement leaders, digital specialists and cross-functional stakeholders, you will identify opportunities where data, analytics and AI can create lasting business impact. You will combine strong business acumen with technical insight to move initiatives from idea to adoption, ensuring that solutions solve real business problems and deliver sustainable value.
This role offers a unique opportunity to influence how AI shapes procurement decision-making across a global organization while contributing to Novo's broader digital transformation journey.
You will join the Digital Procurement team within Global Direct Procurement. The team works at the intersection of procurement strategy, business transformation, data and technology, driving initiatives that strengthen decision-making, improve supplier collaboration and enable operational excellence.
Working closely with procurement, finance, supply chain and enterprise technology functions, the team plays a central role in identifying and delivering innovative solutions that create value across the organization. You will become part of a collaborative and ambitious environment where curiosity, innovation and business impact are highly valued.
To succeed in this role, we imagine that you bring strong experience leading digital, data or AI-driven initiatives and can confidently engage both business and technical stakeholders. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity, influencing senior leaders and translating complex challenges into actionable solutions.
It would be considered an advantage if you have experience within procurement, supply chain, life sciences or other highly regulated industries.
As a person, you are curious, self-driven and outcome oriented. You combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution and thrive in environments where you can influence without formal authority. You bring a consulting mindset, communicate complex topics with clarity and enjoy helping organizations unlock value through technology. Most importantly, you are passionate about using innovation to solve meaningful business problems and create lasting impact.
Every day we seek the solutions that defeat serious chronic diseases. To do this, we approach our work with determination, constant curiosity and a commitment to finding better ways forward. For over 100 years, this dedication has driven us to build a company focused on lasting change for long-term health. One where diverse thinking, shared purpose and mutual respect come together to create extraordinary results.

More than 67,000 employees around the world contribute to advancing healthcare through curiosity, collaboration and innovation. Whether through science, technology, manufacturing or business functions, every contribution helps create progress for the millions of people we serve.
