Director Of Finance à United States

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.

A healthier future. That’s what drives us.

At Roche, our Finance Centers of Excellence have led the way in breaking down silos, removing hierarchies, and working in new ways. We’ve learned from our successes and from the things that haven’t gone so well. We’re better equipped to look at interfaces and synergies and to understand the risks of creating new silos. Now is the time to build on those learnings, shifting from a divisional/functional approach to an enterprise approach with an Enterprise Center of Excellence (eCoE).

The eCoE will focus on three areas: delivering a high level of financial expertise, innovative insights, and an entrepreneurial mindset that enables agility and flexibility for stakeholders. The eCoE will be a talent engine for Finance through capability building and network building.

There are three focus areas within eCoE:

• Financial Backbone

• Digital Innovation

• Planning, analytics, and insights

While there are three focus areas and clusters, we are not seeking to create silos. We are looking for individuals who display the Finance Mindset and behaviors and will support a living organism that will leverage the business knowledge and financial expertise of the network to deliver exceptional results for Finance and Roche. Team members will partner with Roche Services & Solutions, Finance Enterprise Partners, and the Business to deliver many of Finance's core processes and deliverables while also driving process scaling/simplification/harmonization and progressing our digital ambition. Ensuring business continuity is a must.

The Opportunity:

• In this forward-thinking role, you will be a standing member of the standard costing global squad, and you will use your deep financial expertise and knowledge of the standard costing process to be able to orchestrate, execute, monitor, validate, and judge the quality of e2e process outcomes in the Pharma (and Group) financials, understanding the complexity of the steps and the readiness of the data, and can judge if this is correct or not (technical-logical, by product, regardless of the system or tools).

• Inventory reporting and partnering with the supply chain organization will form a key component of your responsibilities. From an analytical and digital perspective, you, as part of the eCoE will play a role in building and developing models that would help to judge the accuracy and correctness of outcomes coming from the standards’ execution, and also, enhance the management reporting to integrate standard costing data into that.

Who You Are:

• Holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance or a Business-related discipline.

• A minimum of 5-7+ years of experience in Finance, in a global setting, with a notable emphasis on manufacturing and cost accounting business partnering.

• Strong understanding of standard costing principles and methodologies

• Digital savviness and technical experience and strong understanding of SAP 4/H cost accounting/standard costing, and profitability analysis. Strong automation and process improvement skills.

• Good analytical skills with the ability to examine financial data, identify patterns, and draw conclusions

• A passion for change, simplification, and process improvement, as well as the ability to see through complexity and identify and remove waste

• Tech-savvy and out-of-the-box thinker to drive process innovation and improvement

• Resilience and the ability to adjust to a fast-changing environment and to promote and apply the VACC leadership principles

• Ability to understand the business context and to apply judgment towards prioritization and decision-making; able to effectively balance and switch between high-level and details

• Entrepreneurial spirit and curiosity that is inspirational to others, generating ideas and seeing them through to action
