Description

At Roche you can show up as yourself, embraced for the unique qualities you bring. Our culture encourages personal expression, open dialogue, and genuine connections, where you are valued, accepted and respected for who you are, allowing you to thrive both personally and professionally. This is how we aim to prevent, stop and cure diseases and ensure everyone has access to healthcare today and for generations to come. Join Roche, where every voice matters. The Position Job Purpose This role acts as a "T-shaped" Value Orchestrator. The primary mission is to break down traditional silos between procurement and finance by autonomously leading procurement strategies and end-to-end (E2E) processes. Crucially, this role ensures that the "savings" and "cash flow optimizations" generated from procurement activities are directly reflected in the affiliate's financial planning and budgeting (P&L), thereby maximizing enterprise business value. Key Responsibilities 1. Procurement Strategy & Vendor Management Develop and implement procurement strategies and savings plans to support business objectives and financial targets. Execute comprehensive Vendor Management, which includes coordinating supplier selection, onboarding, regular performance evaluations, and maintaining strong, strategic vendor relationships. Lead supplier negotiations to secure favorable commercial terms. Optimize payment terms to significantly reduce deposit/advance invoices and improve company cash flows. 2. Budgeting & Financial Planning Integrate procurement savings and cost optimization plans directly into the affiliate's planning events, including Business Plan (BP), T0, T3, Baseline, as well as Period cost, and M&D budgets. Ensure procurement savings initiatives are tightly aligned with and realized in the company’s financial targets and P&L. 3. E2E Process, Governance & SOPs Create, maintain, and regularly update Procurement Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and formalized purchasing policies to ensure operational efficiency and compliance across all departments. Establish and maintain governance frameworks for the full procurement lifecycle and internal controls. Continuously evaluate and enhance procurement processes and controls to ensure scalability and effectiveness. 4. Collaboration & Network Orchestration Act as the bridge between Finance and Procurement, and collaborate closely with the Supply Chain team to align procurement processes with operational needs. Work with the Roche network (other affiliates and global) to find better solutions and share best practices. 5. Compliance & Risk Management Perform risk management on supply contracts, proactively identifying and resolving supply or quality issues. Conduct all business activities in full compliance with Roche Secure, Roche Behavior in Business, Roche Competition Law Interactive Dialogues, and external regulations. Key Requirements Education: Bachelor’s Degree or above, preferably in Business Administration, Finance, or related. Experience: 5+ years of experience in procurement, supply chain management, or financial planning in Multinational Companies (MNCs). Professional Skills: Strong negotiation, analytical, and financial acumen (understanding of budgeting and P&L). Expertise in vendor management, procurement governance, SOP creation, and E2E processes. Familiarity with financial systems (e.g., SAP) is required. Attributes & Languages: Proven ability to solve problems, influence cross-functional teams, and build stakeholder relationships. Fluent in both oral and written English and Mandarin. Good compliance track record. Who we are A healthier future drives us to innovate.
