If you want to learn more about Business Perspectives and the recruitment process, visit our Career page, which includes all the details you need to know. As part of the application, you will need to prepare a maximum 4-slide presentation answering the following questions and Business Case. Why do you want to participate in the Business Perspectives Program at Roche? How would you contribute to the Commercial community at Roche? Business Case: Your country’s healthcare system is under pressure. While scientific breakthroughs in Precision Medicine (targeted therapies, gene therapies, and immunotherapies) offer the potential to cure previously unmanageable diseases, they come with high upfront costs. Simultaneously, the post-pandemic economic reality has left public health budgets deeply in deficit. To manage these deficits, government payers are reverting to short-term cost-containment measures—such as strict price referencing, delayed reimbursement, and flat budget cuts—rather than investing in long-term value. You are seeing a trend where "Value-Based Healthcare" is praised in policy papers but abandoned in practice because the system is too fragmented to measure results. Based on the dynamics above and your understanding of the current market: Risks & Opportunities: What are the biggest commercial risks for a company launching high-value precision medicines in this cost-constrained environment? Conversely, where does the "data gap" in healthcare systems present a unique opportunity for a partner like Roche? Strategic Proposal: Present one concrete proposal for a creative partnership model (beyond simple drug discounting) that would allow the healthcare system to adopt a new Roche innovation while minimizing their financial risk. Operational Considerations: What internal shifts (e.g., in structure, digital capabilities, or talent mindset) must Roche make to successfully execute this proposal? Ready to take the next step? We'd love to hear from you. Apply now to explore this exciting opportunity! Who we are A healthier future drives us to innovate.
