Join Sanofi’s New Launch Excellence Center in Switzerland – Where Innovation Meets Impact

Sanofi International AG, based in Switzerland, is establishing a new transformational global commercialization center— at the cornerstone of Sanofi "Launch Powerhouse" strategy.  We are building a new world-class, centralized launch engine designed to orchestrate end-to-end commercialization for breakthrough medicines and vaccines across our Immunology and Specialty Care portfolios, that will reinforce and strengthen Sanofi’s existing launch expertise and network.

This is not a traditional pharmaceutical role. You will be part of a new pioneering, entrepreneurial entity with real decision-making authority over global launch strategies, pricing corridors, market access, lifecycle management, manufacturing, supply chain, and commercial execution. Working alongside a diverse, cross-functional team of approximately 150 dedicated professionals co-located in Switzerland, you will drive standardized, data-driven, AI-powered launch excellence at unprecedented scale.

Why co-location matters: Success in this role requires seamless, daily collaboration across medical affairs, commercial strategy, regulatory, manufacturing & supply, market access, and digital teams. By working together in one location, we eliminate silos, accelerate decision-making, foster innovation through continuous coordination, and create the agility needed to transform patient access worldwide. This is where strategy meets execution—where your work directly impacts millions of patients awaiting our next generation of therapies.
