Country Brand Manager, Vaccines
Pfizer
Role Overview
The Country Brand Manager (CBM) for Prevenar 20 Paediatrics, Singapore is responsible for driving brand growth through strong execution of the commercial plan, grounded in clear prioritization of paediatric segments and market opportunities. The CBM develops the mindset and capabilities of a brand general manager — demonstrating ownership over the brand growth agenda, clarity on where to play and how to win, and the ability to identify what is not working and adapt with agility.
Key Capabilities
1. Paediatric Vaccine Market & Business Acumen
A strong CBM must demonstrate solid understanding of:
Paediatric pneumococcal disease burden and target segments — infants, children under 5, pre-term, and immunocompromised populations
Singapore's private and public market dynamics — including private paediatricians, GP clinics, polyclinics, and the Childhood Immunisation Programme (CIP) under MOH
Competitive landscape — PCV10, PCV13, PCV15, and PCV20 dynamics, including positioning relative to national schedule recommendations and private market brand choice
Access levers — working understanding of MediShield Life, Medisave, and CHAS subsidies as drivers of uptake
The CBM can clearly articulate where to play and how to win beyond promotion alone.
2. Brand Ownership & Growth Plan Accountability
