The Opportunity

As a Regulatory Affairs Project Manager, your day-to-day focus will center on managing stakeholders, navigating complex compliance pathways, and driving product approvals. Your core responsibilities will be distributed across the following key areas:

• Regulatory Submissions : Oversee the development of medium-to-high complexity submission and product registration dossiers; apply a deep understanding of global healthcare regulatory frameworks to secure marketing approvals from health authorities.

• Teamwork & Collaboration: Pull cross-functional groups together around common goals, build on different perspectives to enhance project outcomes, and resolve conflicts by creating an atmosphere of openness and trust.

• Stakeholder Management: Effectively communicate and partner with internal and external teams to understand requirements and deliver optimal solutions, developing relationships that significantly influence the future direction of Roche products.

• Communication & Agile Frameworks: Use agile principles to drive regulatory activities. Foster an open exchange of ideas amongst key stakeholders to shift perspectives, reach common outcomes, and reflect multiple viewpoints on complex issues.

• Decision Making & Leadership: Work day-to-day with minimal guidance to correctly execute scheduled and unscheduled activities. Live the spirit of "We all lead" using VACC principles, persuading and supporting colleagues over whom you have no direct authority.

• Problem Solving & Agile Mindset: Independently troubleshoot operational issues, develop cost-effective solutions to maintain compliance, and actively simplify processes to increase productivity across Q&R.
