About Leica Biosystems

At Leica Biosystems, our mission is Advancing Cancer Diagnostics, Improving Lives. As a global leader in anatomical pathology solutions and part of Danaher, we support the pathology workflow from biopsy to diagnosis, helping laboratories and healthcare professionals deliver the answers patients need.

Join us to bring this mission to life across Saudi Arabia. You will combine your histopathology expertise with product and people leadership to help customers adopt solutions that strengthen laboratory performance and support cancer diagnostics.

Your Role

As Product & Application Manager, you will lead product strategy and application excellence for the Leica Biosystems histopathology portfolio in Saudi Arabia. You will manage and develop the Application Consultant team, drive product adoption and market penetration, and support product launches and expansion projects.

You will also own tender response strategy and execution, including NUPCO and major institutional tenders, and lead market feasibility assessments to identify opportunities for portfolio growth. Working closely with Sales, Service, Marketing, and Shared Services, you will turn customer needs and market insights into clear priorities and coordinated action.

A strong, hands-on histopathology background is essential. You should be confident engaging with pathologists and laboratory leaders, guiding application teams, and explaining the clinical, operational, and commercial value of our solutions.
