Global Clinical Artwork Manager - Temporary for 2 years

Roche is hiring for a Global Clinical Artwork Manager on a 2-year fixed-term, full-time basis. The role is onsite in Kaiseraugst FHLR, Switzerland, and sits within the Production Enablement team of Global Clinical Supply Chain Management. You’ll be the crucial link between cross-functional teams, external partners, and regulatory networks to design and deliver compliant clinical labeling artwork. Your work helps support clinical trials worldwide, getting life-saving materials to patients safely and on time. Roche values individuality and inclusive collaboration, and this role is a great fit if you enjoy working across cultures and functions to keep complex labeling programs moving.

If you thrive in a global, collaborative environment and enjoy solving labeling challenges with internal teams and external vendors, you’ll likely feel at home here. You’ll interact with Clinical Study Planning, global manufacturing groups, external suppliers, and regulatory label representatives to keep the label creation process on track, while addressing issues and ensuring accuracy across the lifecycle. This is a hands-on position with global impact, designed for someone eager to contribute to patient access and trial success.

Roche is a global health care company with more than 100,000 employees worldwide. Its efforts help more than 26 million patients treated with medicines and support over 30 billion tests conducted using Diagnostics products. Roche is an Equal Opportunity Employer and strives to foster an inclusive environment where every voice matters.

Labeling in motion: daily life of the global clinical artwork manager

You will design and manage clinical labeling artwork for a global portfolio of Investigational Medicinal Products across internal manufacturing sites and CMOs, ensuring each label meets regulatory and patient-safety standards.

You’ll shepherd the end-to-end label lifecycle from initiation through approval and delivery, covering booklet formats as well as single-panel and shelf-life extension labels, so clinical materials stay compliant and ready for use.

Across a global network, you’ll collaborate with Clinical Study Planning, manufacturing teams, external suppliers, and regulatory label representatives to keep the labeling programs aligned with evolving requirements and timelines.

When issues arise in the label creation process, you’ll drive resolution, keep tabs on labeling regulations, and maintain the master data and documentation that support audits and inspections.

Part of your role involves leading supplier relationship management with external booklet vendors, conducting performance reviews, and pushing continuous improvement to raise quality and efficiency.

You’ll also support emerging packaging technologies by coordinating development and testing of new label capabilities with external vendors, and you’ll champion label-related operations for pre-approval access and post-trial access programs to support global patient needs.

What you’ll bring to the table

Here’s what Roche is looking for in a candidate. These are the must-haves:

• A university degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Biopharmaceuticals, Supply Chain Management, or a related field
• Three or more years of experience in the pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, or clinical supply chain environment
• Solid knowledge of pharma supply chain operations, clinical packaging processes, and regulatory/cGMP standards
• Excellent English communication skills, with proven negotiation, problem-solving, and cross-cultural collaboration abilities
• Adaptable, proactive approach with an ability to manage shifting priorities and drive continuous improvements using Lean principles

Nice-to-haves provide a helpful edge but aren’t required:

• Familiarity with enterprise systems (for example SAP ERP) or specialized label creation software

Tips to help you stand out for this role

Put the most relevant experience up top in your CV, giving prominence to end-to-end labeling work, including booklet labels, single-panel formats, and shelf-life extensions, plus examples of cross-functional collaboration.

Demonstrate how you’ve driven Lean-enabled process improvements in labeling or packaging workflows, and show concrete outcomes from those efforts, such as reduced cycle times or fewer deviations.

Prepare stories that illustrate your ability to resolve label-related issues, monitor regulatory changes, and manage documentation across multiple sites and vendors, with a focus on collaboration and timely delivery.

Consider a thoughtful question you can ask in an interview about how this role supports pre-approval access and post-trial access programs and how collaboration with global regulatory label representatives works in practice.
