Regional Category Lead SAMEA - All Genders

Act with purpose. Innovate with care.

At Biocodex, we believe we can be global without being impersonal, demanding without being rigid, and innovative without losing sight of care.

As a human-sized pharmaceutical company, we operate with high standards, a strong team mindset, and a clear ambition: to create meaningful, lasting impact. Here, you can own your role, grow your expertise, and be fully yourself.

We're not looking for cookie-cutter profiles. We're looking for strong expertise, fresh thinking, and people who want to build something that matters.

Why this role matters

The Regional Category Lead (RCL) is responsible for driving regional marketing execution across countries where Biocodex operates through partnerships.

Marketing strategy execution is based on two pillars:
