The Position

Join the Strategy and Solutions Chapter, a hub of innovation that guides strategic priorities and strengthens Global Procurement's impact across Roche.

  • You take ownership of designated solutions as the subject-matter expert, with an immediate focus on external workforce solutions and their governance and direction.

  • You optimise processes and solutions continuously, maximising value through analytics and data insights.

  • You collaborate across the matrix — partnering with Procurement, IT, Business Process Management and external vendors to align priorities and enhance enabling technologies.

  • You build governance excellence — developing frameworks, guides, tools and training, and overseeing key configurations such as workflow, thresholds and access control in no-code contexts.

  • You shape vendor roadmaps — managing relationships with solution providers and influencing their products to meet Roche's needs.

Who you are:

  • You hold a university degree in Business or IT and bring significant experience across Procurement, Supply Chain, Procurement Technology, or Management Consulting.

  • You have deep expertise in procurement technology management, including backlog management, KPIs, and applying LLMs.

  • You translate complex data into actionable insights and craft clear messages for senior stakeholders.

  • You influence and collaborate across teams without direct authority, adapting quickly to changing priorities in a matrix organisation.

  • You are a strategic, action-oriented and inclusive thinker who understands both the power of technology and the human change management that underpins it.

Preferred:

  • Certified expertise in Scrum/SAFe, LEAN, or Change Management.

  • Business fluency in German, in addition to business fluency in English.
