Who you'll work with

You'll report to the Head of IP and will be part of the IP Leadership Team (IPLT). You will manage a team covering IP Operations and IP Patent Portfolio Management.

You will foster collaboration across the IP department and key stakeholders, spearheading digital transformation initiatives and optimizing communication channels.
