Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've led regional or multi-market marketing strategy in B2B2C (esp. healthcare, SaaS, or professional services) and can translate global playbooks into local wins
  • You thrive on ambiguity and building teams/processes from scratch; you're comfortable being a solo regional leader with matrixed support
  • You're fluent in data: you define KPIs, build dashboards, and make decisions based on metrics, not gut feel
  • You speak French and/or Dutch; you understand Western European healthcare/professional practice dynamics and can navigate regulatory nuance
Won't Work If
  • You need a fully remote setup or flexibility on location—this role is 5 days/week on-site in Paris with no negotiation
  • You're unfamiliar with B2B healthcare, medical devices, or professional practice marketing; the clinical/practitioner audience is non-negotiable
  • You want to own creative or brand design; this is a strategy, execution, and P&L leadership role—design/creative is matrixed
