Because of Roche’s networked, no-borders approach, you will regularly collaborate with regional and global colleagues, actively contributing to broader Middle East communication initiatives.

  • High-Impact Internal Events: Concept, plan, and execute key internal events, town halls, and engagement initiatives that bring the RDSA strategy to life, foster collaboration, and boost employee morale.
  • External Positioning & Reputation: Develop effective external positioning strategies to enhance the reputation of Roche Diagnostics, our innovative products, and the value we bring to the Saudi healthcare ecosystem.
  • Media & Executive Coaching: Partner with and coach the affiliate’s media spokespersons and leadership team for public engagements, interviews, and executive positioning.
  • Regional Collaboration: Work closely with the Middle East Regional Communications Lead to align national strategies with regional internal engagement and external positioning frameworks.
  • Agency & Vendor Management: Direct and manage partner agencies, event organizers, and creative vendors to ensure seamless, high-quality, and timely delivery of projects.

Key Success Factors

  • Strategic Advisory: The ability to influence, guide, and challenge senior leaders, earning a seat at the table as a strategic communication partner.
  • Change Advocacy: Proven capability to guide organizations through change with empathy, clarity, and impactful storytelling.
  • Stakeholder Management: Proactively engaging with diverse internal and external stakeholders to co-create solutions and build high-trust relationships.
  • Network Integration: Actively leaning into the broader Roche network, sharing best practices, and repurposing successful initiatives with pride.

Who are you?

  • Saudi National & Bilingual Fluency: Fluent in English and Arabic; experienced in local media navigation and executive communications.
  • Experience: 6–10 years of progressive corporate communications experience, preferably within matrixed Healthcare or FMCG multinationals.
  • Strategic Advisor: Proven experience counseling the GM and executive leadership to translate business strategy into clear narratives.
  • Change Management Champion: Track record of designing and leading communications for cultural transformations and organizational restructurings.
  • Internal Engagement: Experience executing interactive events, town halls, and campaigns that drive employee alignment and morale.
  • Saudi Healthcare & Vision 2030: Strong understanding of the Saudi healthcare landscape, MoH priorities, and Vision 2030 alignment.
  • PR & Crisis Management: Experience leading external PR, brand positioning, and crisis management, backed by a strong local media network.
