The Position

At Roche Diagnostics, we are transforming healthcare by driving strategies that enable a sustainable system with accurate diagnostics across the entire continuum of care. As our Network Lead, you will hold a pivotal, high-impact leadership position: unifying a dynamic cross-functional team to elevate our brand, drive commercial ambitions, and enhance customer engagement across the Dutch healthcare ecosystem.

In this agile leadership role, you will act as the dedicated lead for our cross-functional Network (spanning ~15 colleagues across sales, marketing, service, consultancy, and application) while holding an influential seat on our business governance body, the Acceleration Pulse. Reporting to the Healthcare Transformation Platform Lead, you will lead without authority, using your VACC mindset to empower team members, optimize patient pathways, and turn strategic vision into tangible commercial success.

If you are passionate about leading people through influence and transforming healthcare delivery, this is your chance to make a lasting impact.
