Mgr, Commercial Marketing
About The Position
As the Commercial Marketing Manager for connectivity products in the US market, you will translate global portfolio strategy into focused commercial execution that drives demand, enables the sales organization, and supports profitable growth. You will bring strong market understanding, customer insight, and execution discipline to help Baxter compete in a rapidly evolving connected care environment. This downstream role is the US commercial counterpart to the upstream global product marketing function. While upstream marketing defines portfolio strategy, innovation priorities, and global roadmaps, this role will focus on turning those strategies into actionable US market plans, differentiated value messages, sales enablement tools, launch execution, and measurable commercial outcomes. The connectivity portfolio is strategically important to Care and Connectivity Solutions and represents a meaningful opportunity to strengthen Baxter’s value proposition across nurse call, smart devices, clinical communications, locating, and broader connected care workflows. This position will focus on accelerating adoption of connectivity solutions in the US by understanding customer needs, supporting field execution, and partnering across sales, global marketing, product management, clinical, service, and commercial operations. We develop and commercialize solutions with patients, caregivers, and health systems in mind. Our marketing efforts are grounded in customer value, clinical workflow, and commercial impact, so you can be proud of the role you play in helping healthcare teams deliver safer, more connected care. As part of a large, matrixed organization, you will collaborate with sales, global marketing, product management, strategy, clinical, service, and operations teams to align priorities, remove barriers, and create practical tools that help the US field organization win. From your leaders to your peers, we operate as a team. We are focused on delivering for patients, customers, and the business while continuing to strengthen the commercial engine behind Baxter’s connected care portfolio.
