About The Position

The ICT Integration Lead is accountable for advancing a cohesive, end-to-end Interventional Cardiology Therapies (ICT) business over time while aligning integration pace and priorities with leadership direction. The position protects execution and performance within individual therapy areas in the near term while building toward a more integrated operating model and customer experience. It balances delivery of each therapy area's commitments with the long-term opportunity to create value across the combined ICT portfolio. The role defines and adjusts a phased integration roadmap based on business readiness, execution progress, organizational capacity, and value. It identifies high-value, low-disruption integration opportunities and supports leadership alignment and communication around integration priorities. The role also develops a long-term vision and future-state scenarios for an integrated ICT operating model serving interventional cardiologists, without forcing premature implementation. The position establishes governance, decision-making structures, decision rights, and escalation mechanisms that reflect current autonomy and future integration. It facilitates alignment across functions including R&D, clinical, regulatory, marketing, quality, finance, and HR, and leads an integration program and associated PMO to track progress, milestones, dependencies, and risks. The intended impact is sustained performance within therapy areas, coordinated progress toward an integrated operating model, improved cross-functional alignment, and a more connected future experience for interventional cardiologists. The job is eligible for short- and long-term incentive plans. Medtronic describes its benefits as including health, dental and vision insurance, savings and retirement plans, paid time off and holidays, tuition assistance or reimbursement, employee stock purchase plan, disability coverage, and well-being and employee assistance programs, subject to the stated eligibility conditions. The role's nationally stated U.S. base salary range is $229,600 to $344,400, excluding Puerto Rico and certain California locations.
