About The Role
This role is built around ownership. The Access portfolio is where every neurovascular procedure begins. In a competitive category, market leadership is decided as much by strategy as by product: how you position the portfolio, launch products and create value for customers.
You’ll own the portfolio across EMEA, including catheters and guidewires. You set the strategy, own the products and are accountable for performance. You’ll shape the brand and identify new areas of growth for the portfolio.

What You’ll Do
- Own the EMEA business strategy for Access: where we play, how we win and the investment behind it.
- Understand the clinical and technical needs of physicians in depth, from navigation to device delivery, and let that shape the strategy and portfolio.
- Build the annual marketing plan and a 3–5 year portfolio roadmap, partnering with divisional, portfolio and local marketing teams.
- Own regional product management: define and run the product lifecycle, from launch through to phase-out.
- Own branding, messaging, positioning and pricing, built on market, customer and competitive insight.
- Lead the launch pipeline and ensure each launch lands impactfully in the market.
- Partner with divisional teams to grow the portfolio through new products, line extensions and M&A, bringing the EMEA voice of the customer into every decision.
- Build our position across the whole stroke pathway, partnering with technology and ecosystem partners.
- Turn strategy into a plan the field can run with: tools, tactics and strategic initiatives.
- Own the numbers: sales, share, price, margin and brand perception. Analyse what drives future performance and act fast when something is off track.
- Partner with physicians and stroke teams as true partners, not just customers, and work with Medical Education on evidence generation and congress presence.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
