Gurinder Kaur

I am the Vice President of Global Operations IT at AstraZeneca.  As a member of the Global Operations Senior Leadership Team, I am responsible for driving digital transformation across Global Operations. I have a specific focus on ensuring our digital agenda across development, manufacturing and supply is connected, that it enhances our ways of working, and delivers optimum results for our company and the patients we serve.

With nearly 30 years of experience across industries leading a range of technology functions (digital, analytics, sales, customer relationship management, marketing, operations) and geographies (USA, Europe, Australia, Asia), I’m passionate about matching technology solutions to business needs with a key focus on value generation through speed and scale.

Prior to joining AstraZeneca in 2021, my career took me to global roles at major companies in the automotive, energy, food and beverage and consumer goods industries. What drew me to joining a global biopharmaceutical company after all of this time was the difference we could make in people’s lives. We have an incredible opportunity to leverage digital in the supply chain to ensure that our pipeline and portfolio is fit for the future and that we can deliver the right medicines to the right patients at the right time.
