About Takeda

Takeda's field force is cut by therapy business unit, and the open seats follow that map: oncology (solid tumor and hematology territory managers in the US, key account managers in Canada and Delhi, medical representatives for its Japan oncology unit in Tokyo), gastrointestinal and inflammation (key account managers for inflammatory bowel disease and inflammation in Germany under a national head of sales, a gastroenterology KAM in Switzerland), and rare diseases (lysosomal storage disorders and haematology in Germany, hereditary angioedema and transplant in Spain). Public money is a big buyer on this list: key account managers sell public vaccines across India, and plasma-derived therapy and rare disease KAMs in Hyderabad and Delhi manage tenders with government hospitals and procurement teams, while the China roles (Jinan, Hong Kong, Shenyang and Beijing with Chengdu) work hospital listing, market access and distribution. The US has selling seats: a specialty sales representative in Augusta, Georgia who calls on physician offices, clinics and hospitals, and oncology territory managers in Buffalo, Rockville, Grand Rapids and Chicago. Field selling roles sit in India, Germany, the US, China and Canada; R&D, analytics, legal, procurement and partnership enablement jobs in Boston, Bengaluru and Poland only share a word with sales.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
