The opportunity

The role offers genuine ownership, variety and the opportunity to influence both portfolio performance and the future of two important surgical specialties.

Your remit

- Mechanical Stapling portfolio: own the end-to-end product strategy and lifecycle, including market insight, brand planning, positioning, launches, forecasting, pricing, tender strategy, inventory planning, education and commercial performance.

· Lead integrated Colorectal and Bariatric specialty strategies across the relevant Johnson & Johnson MedTech portfolio, ensuring plans reflect the distinct needs of each surgical community.

· Develop strong relationships with colorectal and bariatric surgeons, clinical teams, professional societies and other external stakeholders to identify unmet needs, strengthen advocacy and shape market development.

· Lead local new product introductions using Launch Excellence principles, from insight generation and business planning through field readiness, adoption and post-launch optimisation.

· Track portfolio and specialty performance, gather market intelligence and adjust plans quickly to deliver profitable, above-market growth.

· Influence and enable the sales organisation through clear strategy, high-quality training, field engagement and effective indirect leadership.

What you will bring

- Commercial judgement and confidence using market, customer and performance data to prioritise investment and make decisions.

- Strong communication, project management and organisational skills, with the ability to manage several priorities at pace.
