Our Europe & Canada (EUCAN) Business Unit supports Takeda’s global mission through the regions’ pipeline projects and priorities. As the leader in rare diseases and specialty care, we champion better health and a brighter future for patients, healthcare providers and our people.
Our hub site in Zurich is a EUCAN commercial center. We have a diverse range of talent working in key global career areas:
- Medical Affairs
- Market Access
- Global Commercial
- Corporate
- Manufacturing & Supply
- Vaccines
- Oncology
- R&D
We aspire to lead with a focus on three bold ambitions:
- Be the #1 GI company
- Transform rare diseases
- Be #1 in our disease areas of oncology and neurology
We will achieve this by taking a people-focused approach underpinned by Takeda’s values to build trust with society and reinforce our reputation as a partner, translating those relationships into business growth.
Helping Takeda achieve its mission is at the heart of everything we do within EUCAN: every decision is made as close to the patient as possible. At the core of our work is how we bring Takeda’s values to life: we earn the trust of society by living our values every day. To achieve this, we cultivate a culture of focus, agility, and empowerment, and foster entrepreneurship and innovation.
