Lead, Health Security

The World Economic Forum, committed to improving the state of the world, is an international organization for public‑private cooperation. The Forum engages leaders across sectors to shape global agendas. The Forum’s Centre for Health & Healthcare (CHH) works to make healthcare systems more resilient, efficient and equitable. At the Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos in January 2026, CHH launched the Pandemic Preparedness Engine (PPX), a global AI‑factory‑based platform that identifies infectious disease risk and accelerates vaccine development within 100 days of identification. This role sits at the intersection of science, strategy and partnership, translating health‑security priorities into actionable applications with pharmaceutical, biotech and AI partners, designing and scaling the PPX platform and accelerating counter‑measure R&D.
