Head of Data & Tech LATAM

Welcome to Haleon. We’re a purpose-driven, world-class consumer company putting everyday health in the hands of millions. In just three years since our launch, we’ve grown, evolved and are now entering an exciting new chapter – one filled with bold ambitions and enormous opportunity.

Our trusted portfolio of brands – including Sensodyne®, Panadol®, Advil®, Voltaren®, Theraflu®, Otrivin®, and Centrum® – lead in resilient and growing categories. What sets us apart is our unique blend of deep human understanding and trusted science.

Now it’s time to fully realise the full potential of our business and our people. We do this through our Win as One strategy. It puts our purpose – to deliver better everyday health with humanity – at the heart of everything we do. It unites us, inspires us, and challenges us to be better every day, driven by our agile, performance-focused culture.

Background and Context

Digital & Technology sits at the heart of Haleon’s ambition to Win as One. We are Haleon’s digital backbone – how we accelerate impact, unlock new value, and build a future‑ready organisation. Digital isn’t simply part of our business; it is how we operate, grow, and deliver everyday health at scale.

The Digital & Technology function plays a critical role as a strategic partner to the business, turning insights into impact and ideas into innovation. From secure, resilient operations and modern digital foundations, to hyper‑personalised customer and consumer experiences, digital is embedded across every part of Haleon – shaping how we innovate, supply consumer demand, go to market, and run our internal operations.

Our focus is clear: to secure the business, run resilient and compliant operations, and transform Haleon into a digital organisation that is wired for excellence. This is enabled by sustained investment in a scalable, resilient technology foundation and the adoption of digital solutions that empower our people, elevate performance, and enable the 4–6% organic revenue growth and productivity savings underpinning Win as One.

Digital only delivers when people are at the centre. Building skills, confidence, and modern ways of working is essential to realising value from technology. Together, we are reshaping the backbone of Haleon to become a best‑in‑class consumer health company – bold, resilient, performance‑focused, and fit for the future.
