Role Overview:
The SBU Head – Critical Care is a senior leadership role with full business ownership of Fresenius Medical Care's Critical Care portfolio in India and South Asia. This role goes well beyond sales leadership — it demands the strategic vision to build a category, the commercial discipline to deliver a P&L, and the clinical authority to shape therapy conversations at the highest levels of the healthcare ecosystem.
The incumbent will define where the Critical Care business goes, build the team and infrastructure to get it there, and represent FME as the definitive voice of critical care renal therapy in the region.
This is a business-building mandate, not a management role.

Your Responsibilities:
STRATEGIC RESPONSIBILITIES
Business Strategy & Vision
Develop and own the multi-year strategy for the Critical Care SBU — covering therapy portfolio positioning, market development roadmap, competitive differentiation, and revenue growth architecture. Translate the global FME Critical Care vision into an India-specific strategy that accounts for the unique market dynamics of public, private, and emerging healthcare segments.
P&L Ownership
Full accountability for the Critical Care SBU's revenue, margin, and cost structure. Drive sustainable, profitable growth through disciplined resource allocation, pricing strategy, and investment prioritisation. Own the annual operating plan and present business performance to the MD and regional leadership with clarity and conviction.
Portfolio & Therapy Development
Work closely with global product management and the regional marketing team to shape the India portfolio roadmap. Identify therapy gaps, unmet clinical needs, and market entry opportunities — and translate them into concrete product and therapy development priorities. Champion CRRT, HVHDF, and adjacent critical care therapies with both clinical and commercial rigour.
Market Development & Penetration
Define and execute a market development strategy that expands the addressable critical care universe in India — across corporate chains, standalone tertiary hospitals, government medical institutions, and emerging ICU setups in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. Build a scalable model that regional teams can execute with consistency.
COMMERCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES
Revenue Growth & Target Delivery
Ultimately accountable for the SBU's top-line performance. Drive a results-oriented culture within the team while ensuring the commercial approach is grounded in clinical value — not just transaction. Balance short-term target delivery with long-term account and therapy development.
Key Institutional Relationships
Own relationships with the most strategically significant accounts in the country — large hospital chains, apex government institutions, and key academic medical centres. These require seniority, clinical credibility, and long-term continuity, and the SBU Head must invest in them personally.
Tender & Government Business Strategy
Develop a structured approach to government and institutional tenders — understanding procurement cycles, decision hierarchies, and compliance requirements across states. Identify and pursue large-scale public health opportunities where FME's Critical Care portfolio can create systemic impact.
Pricing & Commercial Policy
Define and govern the regional pricing framework for the Critical Care portfolio in alignment with global and regional guidelines. Ensure commercial policy is consistently applied while retaining the flexibility to respond to competitive and market-specific dynamics.
PEOPLE & ORGANISATIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES
Team Leadership & Culture
Lead, inspire, and develop the Critical Care commercial organisation — Regional Managers, Product Specialists, and cross-functional partners. Create a high-performance culture equally driven by clinical purpose and commercial ambition. The SBU Head sets the standard for what good looks like — in the field, in the boardroom, and in every customer interaction.
Talent Development & Succession
Actively build the next generation of Critical Care leaders within FME India. Identify high-potential individuals early, create stretch opportunities, and work with HR to build structured development plans. The measure of this role's success includes the quality of talent it produces.
Hiring & Organisational Design
Own workforce planning for the SBU — assessing where the team needs to grow, what capabilities are missing, and how to structure the organisation for the next phase. Partner with HR on recruitment, onboarding, and capability frameworks.
CLINICAL & SCIENTIFIC LEADERSHIP
National KOL Strategy
Build and lead a national KOL engagement programme across critical care and nephrology. Develop relationships with thought leaders at a level where FME India becomes a genuine scientific and clinical partner — not just a device vendor. Support, co-create, and participate in clinical education initiatives, symposia, and publications.
Clinical Evidence & Therapy Advocacy
Champion the clinical evidence base for FME's Critical Care therapies. Work with the global medical affairs team to generate India-relevant clinical data, real-world evidence, and therapy outcome metrics that strengthen FME's position with both clinicians and institutional payers.
Society & Ecosystem Engagement
Represent FME at national and regional critical care and nephrology forums — ISCCM, ISN, and equivalent bodies. Build FME's institutional credibility through active participation, not passive presence.
KEY DELIVERABLES
EXPECTATIONS
Think Like a Business Owner
Bring an owner's lens to every decision — balancing growth investment with return, short-term pressure with long-term positioning, and team needs with organisational priorities. This role is measured on the health of the business, not just the current quarter's numbers.
Clinical Authority, Commercial Edge
The best candidate will have earned genuine clinical respect — able to walk into an ICU and hold a credible conversation with a senior intensivist — while being razor-sharp on commercial execution. One without the other is insufficient for this role.
Collaboration Without Dilution
Work constructively across Sales, Marketing, Technical Services, Clinical, Finance, and HR to drive integrated outcomes. But maintain a clear point of view — this role requires strong convictions, clearly communicated and well-defended.
External Face of FME Critical Care
Represent FME India at the highest levels — with customers, at conferences, and with regulatory and government bodies where relevant. The SBU Head is not a back-office leader; they are the visible, credible, and trusted face of FME's Critical Care commitment in India.
