The Commercial Portfolio Unit is a newly established strategic unit within Novartis Spain. Taking a cross-portfolio perspective, the unit brings together commercial, financial, market access, regulatory and operational considerations to support better business decisions and turn portfolio complexity into sustainable growth. The role will continuously assess portfolio performance, market dynamics and critical life-cycle milestones to identify opportunities to accelerate growth, improve profitability, protect value and mitigate risk. This is not a traditional single-brand management role. Assess the performance, future potential and strategic relevance of brands at different stages of their life cycle. Evaluate and prioritise opportunities based on their potential impact, feasibility, level of investment, expected return and associated risks. Develop business cases, financial assessments and scenarios to support resource-allocation and investment decisions. Anticipate critical product life-cycle milestones, including Loss of Exclusivity, changes in market dynamics and shifts in the competitive, regulatory or access environment. Develop differentiated life-cycle strategies based on the maturity, performance and strategic relevance of each brand. Identify and activate value-optimisation levers across areas such as pricing, supply strategy, demand management, brand maintenance, operating-model simplification and resource allocation. Support brand transitions into the Commercial Portfolio Unit, ensuring that relevant business knowledge, performance insights, responsibilities and strategic priorities are effectively transferred. Bring together Marketing, Market Access, Finance, Regulatory Affairs,



Supply, Legal and other relevant functions around a common fact base and recommendation. Present portfolio recommendations, business cases and strategic trade-offs to senior stakeholders and decision-making forums. Help establish the Commercial Portfolio Unit as a strategic portfolio-management capability within Novartis Spain.
