About The Position

We are seeking an Engagement Manager to join the Transformation Office and lead high-priority, cross-functional initiatives that improve how MiniMed operates. This role sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, analytics, and change management. The Transformation Office plays a key role in helping MiniMed execute major priorities with speed, rigor, and transparency. This Engagement Manager will help convert strategic intent into operational results by leading initiatives that matter to business performance, organizational readiness, and long-term scale. The Engagement Manager will help shape and drive initiatives across areas such as commercial transformation, separation readiness, operating model improvement, AI-enabled workflow redesign, and business process simplification. This role is designed for a strategy-and-execution leader who can structure ambiguous problems, align stakeholders, and drive execution to measurable business impact.

The ideal candidate is highly analytical, action-oriented, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, matrixed environment. They should be able to move fluidly between executive-level problem solving and day-to-day execution management and be comfortable making sound recommendations even when data is incomplete, directional, or evolving.
