A Day in the Life
We are seeking a strategic, business-focused analyst to drive transformation across supply chain master data, business processes, and operational performance within Medtronic's Global Service & Repair organization.
This role is ideal for a business analyst, process improvement leader, or supply chain transformation professional who understands the critical connection between high-quality master data and effective business operations.

Success in this role requires strong analytical capabilities, exceptional stakeholder management skills, and the ability to confidently engage with senior leaders while translating business needs into actionable strategies and solutions.

•Lead the development of business requirements, process designs, business cases, and implementation plans that support strategic objectives.
•Influence enterprise master data priorities and governance strategies by ensuring business needs are represented and aligned with organizational goals.
•Facilitate cross-functional discussions with stakeholders across regions, functions, and organizational levels to drive alignment and achieve business outcomes.
•Partner with Product Owners, Business Analysts, MDM teams, and technical resources to define priorities, refine requirements, and support solution delivery.
•Monitor business process performance, data quality, and adoption metrics to drive continuous improvement and value realization.
•Support change management activities including stakeholder engagement, communications, training alignment, business readiness, and implementation planning.
•Champion standardized processes, governance practices, and accountability models that improve the quality and usability of enterprise master data.
•Translate complex business challenges into sustainable process, data, and technology solutions.
•Improve the quality, consistency, and governance of Equipment Master, Material Master, and Vendor Master data, to enable more efficient planning, sourcing, inventory management, service delivery, and operational decision-making.
Required Qualifications
•Bachelor's degree and a minimum of 7 years of relevant experience, or an advanced degree and a minimum of 5 years of relevant experience.
•Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business, Supply Chain Management, Operations, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field.
•Expertise working with Equipment Master, Material Master, and/or Vendor Master data within large-scale enterprise environments.
