Our client—a top-tier global healthcare pioneer—is seeking a high-caliber Global Strategic Marketing Lead to take end-to-end portfolio ownership for their Thoracic & Surgical Innovations franchise.

Acting as the vital strategic bridge between Global R&D / Upstream Product Management and Regional Commercial Sales Execution, you will define, position, and launch next-generation surgical solutions across an expansive international territory (ACEE, Middle East, Turkey, and Asia).

This is a highly independent, non-people-manager role designed for a seasoned commercial strategist or former people manager who thrives on matrix leadership, high autonomy, and direct portfolio accountability.

Primary Accountabilities

Upstream Strategy & Innovation: Lead portfolio definition from the ground up, translating market intelligence and clinical unmet needs into high-impact upstream strategies that set the direction for downstream execution teams across the regions.

Commercial Positioning & Launch Excellence: Define value propositions, launch frameworks, and market adoption pathways for advanced surgical technologies across diverse international markets and time zones.

Matrix & Regional Leadership: Work seamlessly with global R&D, regional commercial teams, and cross-functional partners without direct reports, driving alignment through expertise and strategic influence.

Market Insights & Competitive Intelligence: Analyze complex market trends, competitive landscapes, and clinical insights to prioritize pipeline opportunities and maximize market penetration.

KOL & Clinical Partnering: Cultivate strategic relationships with key clinical opinion leaders (KOLs) across international medical centers to validate technology applications and support market development.
