As an affiliate of the Roche Group, Roche Services Europe delivers worldwide support
to the group's financial, procurement and human resources processes.
We would like to introduce ourselves through our amazing colleagues, whose work is the
secret ingredient to making global processes run smoothly and efficiently.
Meet the SSC Budapest team.
We have a really good atmosphere here at Roche, we are helping each other, it feels like that
we have one team.
It all started with my dad, because he was the one who told me these Italian words,
like one word in a day, it was really a great thing.
Then in high school I started to learn it in a professional way as well.
Then in the university I continued, I went to Italy and if you go to Italy you will love it for sure.
With my team we all share the love for everything which is Italian.
We are looking after Italian invoices day by day and we can contact vendors as well
if they have problems or queries.
The biggest advantage at Roche for me is my team.
I can take courageous steps thanks to the trusting atmosphere.
I can really relate to what I have learned in Corfball, to what I do in this company
now, because both are team games.
You need to trust others, you need support from others, you cannot achieve anything alone
and you also need to give your trust and your support to all the other members of the team
and the community as well to achieve what you are there for.
The short service centers play such a vital role in the Roche organization.
First and foremost we are strategic partners who focus on enabling business success.
By being great business partners we deliver as much value to the business as our science
brings to patients.
Setting this high bar by comparing us to the science is on purpose because we hold ourselves
to a higher value and we have to live and breathe these values.
I think the Seared Service Center is really a great environment.
I experience a lot of energy here.
I think there is important work being done in terms of the overall goal of Roche.
We need to make sure that our services run throughout the organization in a good way
to enable the organization to really move forward and focus on patient needs.
We are committed to compliance and transparency.
Our responsibility is to deliver reliable financial reporting.
Roche can stay one step ahead with the groundbreaking solutions and the continuous product development.
I think staff awareness is the most important thing to find your place in the world and
to find yourself at the proper workplace.
I was doing a voluntary work in Ankara in Turkey.
Then I came back and I decided to move to Budapest to find a job in accounting.
Then I went to the interview and I had the feeling immediately that this is the place
I want to work because I had an impression that this is the company which focuses on
the individuals.
Roche is the company that is really aware of our environment and people.
In the future I would like to test myself at Baza headquarters.
That's why I wanted to support them and that's a big challenge for me and I'm always seeking
challenges.
When I hear that Roche is making good results in the medical field that makes me really,
really proud.
Roche is trying to cure cancer and other diseases and do pretty amazing things.
Obviously we're a bit removed from it.
If we do our bit well it contributes to that ultimate goal.
Rugby as a sport is about winning but it's also about the camaraderie and what happens
off the pitch so it's about friendship and teamwork and all those things and if you get
that right hopefully you also achieve your goal on the pitch.
Roche as a company has a good mission.
It acts with integrity and personally it gives me and my team and the people around me the
opportunity to fulfil their potential.
In my daily work I don't deal with medical topics, I'm not in a laboratory but I think
everyone in the company's focus should be on enabling the people who are producing
the drugs or marketing dealing with the governments to make sure that they're doing the best
job possible.
So in HR our role is to make Roche a great place to work so we can attract the best people
and support the best people and develop the best people in the business.
We really have great perspective, just some numbers from the past.
We started here in 2006 with around 25 people and now we have 500 so this really shows that
we have a success story and I'm pretty sure that this will continue in the future.
Also the geographical scope was extended so we started with some European affiliates but
now we are providing services for all over Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa.
We are not just a group of people, we are a real team.
When you're running you feel you can do anything and this is what you can use in the work too.
You have to feel you can do it.
I remember when I started to work here in 2007.
If I look at the number of the affiliates who supported at that time or if I look at the
size of the organization the change what we have been going through is huge and this growth
is still ongoing.
One of our core values courage means for me that we have to be brave enough to believe
that we are equal to the local affiliates so we are partners basically.
I'm happy to hear that our senior leaders often emphasize how important we are for Roche
but sometimes we just have to stop for a while, take a look back and celebrate what we have achieved.
I'm passionate about my work.
I'm passionate about waking up every day, coming to work and knowing that what I do
in the end helps a patient's life.
What is wonderful about Roche is that you can have a project with colleagues from all
over the globe and it can happen that you don't even know them but there is something
we all share.
Three core values, similar in every single Roche affiliate.
So from the moment on you start working with these people you immediately feel part of a team
because you have the same values and I think that's wonderful.
So you're exposed to a global community that shares the same values regardless if you're
in South San Francisco or in Sao Paulo or in Budapest or in Basel.
All of us share the same values and you immediately feel at home when you join Roche.
When I think of Roche, I think about the core values, passion, integrity, and courage.
We live this day in and day out.
You can do shared services anywhere but here at Roche, you're making a difference to the
world.

He'll show you how to do it.
