Job Type: Full Time
Location: Glattbrugg, Zürich, Switzerland

Job Description
-------------------
CSL is looking for a Head of International Communications to lead strategic communications for its Commercial \& Medical International business — a $13 billion operation spanning 39 countries and five regions, treating roughly 19 million patients with therapies for haemophilia, hereditary angioedema, and other rare and complex conditions. This is a senior communications leadership role, reporting to the Head of Global Communications, CSL Behring, Vifor and Plasma and serving as the direct communications partner to the SVP of International, with oversight of a team of five.
*Hybrid based (3 days a week) from our UK office in Maidenhead, with Switzerland and Germany other potential locations*
Why It Matters
CSL holds the leading global position, and much of that position depends on trust — from regulators, from healthcare systems, from the employees and affiliate markets who carry the strategy into 39 different countries. This role sits at the point where business strategy becomes communication: shaping how leadership is understood internally, how the company responds when issues get complicated, and how a genuinely global organisation holds a coherent identity across very different markets. It's a role for someone who sees communications as a strategic function, not a support one.
What You'll Be Responsible For
The role covers the full range of strategic communications for the International Region — from executive counsel to crisis response to the internal narrative that keeps a dispersed organisation aligned. Specifically, you'll:
- Lead development and execution of the International communications strategy, aligned with CSL's global priorities
- Advise the International Leadership Team and senior executives, including messaging, speeches, and leadership positioning
- Lead communications planning and response for significant business, regulatory, and reputational issues
- Own the International internal communications strategy, including employee engagement platforms and leadership forums
- Provide communications leadership for key brands and therapeutic areas across international markets
- Build and lead a communications team, and establish standards and governance across international markets
- 15\+ years of communications experience, including corporate, executive, and issues management
- Experience within pharmaceutical, biotechnology, healthcare, or a similarly regulated industry
- Demonstrated experience advising senior executives and leadership teams
- Experience leading communications programs in a global or multinational environment
- Track record managing complex, sensitive, or high\-profile communications issues
- Strong analytical and strategic thinking skills, with fluency in English required
Approximately 15% travel, predominantly pan\-European.
