Job description

Product Strategy & Development Manager – shape wound care innovation

Passionate about improving care for people in need while making a meaningful difference for healthcare professionals?

Join Coloplast and help shape the next generation of wound and tissue repair solutions.

Here, you will move between market insight, portfolio strategy, innovation and hands‑on execution – turning insights and ideas into solutions that help make life easier for people with intimate healthcare needs.

Working together to move wound care forward

You will join us at our HQ in Humlebæk. Here, you will become part of Wound & Tissue Repair, working with products and solutions that support healthcare professionals in wound management and patient care.

That takes more than one function or one perspective. You will work closely with colleagues across Sales, R&D, Operations and many other functions, with plenty of room to share ideas, learn from each other and have fun along the way.

From “what if?” to “what next?”

This is not a role where you spend all your time making strategies about strategies. You will work across the product and portfolio journey – spotting opportunities, figuring out which ones make sense and helping turn the right ones into reality.

Sometimes you will facilitate a workstream from beginning to end. At other times, you will have several things moving at once. That flexibility is very much part of the job.

More specifically, you will:

• Explore customer needs, market trends, competitors, technologies, access, reimbursement and regulatory developments to identify opportunities
• Turn market, clinical, technical and financial insights into business cases, portfolio choices and clear recommendations
• Lead or support innovation and product development from opportunity assessment through concept, feasibility, development and transfer
• Shape launch, market expansion and lifecycle plans based on strategic fit, unmet needs and commercial potential
• Bring cross‑functional teams together around clear objectives, responsibilities, decisions and next steps

With a global scope comes the opportunity to get out and meet the people you work with, with approximately 10-15% travel.

A strategic mindset with a hands‑on approach

You have a strategic and analytical mindset, but you are not afraid to roll up your sleeves when an idea needs moving forward. You are curious, collaborative and comfortable when there is not a ready‑made answer – and you know how to bring people with you when priorities, perspectives and possibilities compete for attention.

We also imagine that you:

• Have a master’s degree in business, marketing, economics, healthcare, science, engineering or a related discipline
• Bring approximately 3+ years of relevant experience in product strategy, product development, portfolio management, business development, consulting or a related role, preferably within regulated healthcare
• Have successfully led complex cross‑functional initiatives and developed business cases
• Can translate market, clinical, technical and financial information into recommendations
• Have strong English and Microsoft Office skills

Coloplast is committed to being an inclusive organization, where people bring their differences to work each day, fulfil their potential and have a strong sense of belonging because – and not despite – of their differences. We therefore encourage all qualified candidates to apply regardless of gender, age, race, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious belief or physical ability.

Pursuing an ambitious growth agenda, Coloplast develops and markets products and services that make life easier for people with intimate healthcare needs. Employing about 16.000 people and with products available in more than 143 countries, we are one of the world’s leading medical device companies. We are constantly growing our business and always looking for new ways to move forward – we explore, learn and look for new ways of doing things.
