  • Facilitate cross-functional coordination, create trusted partnerships with stakeholders, and ensure strong communication throughout all levels of the organization
  • Track program performance using appropriate tools and metrics, providing regular updates to stakeholders throughout all levels of the organization, including the leadership team
  • Manage design and phase gate reviews, design history files, project documentation, and project closure activities
  • Create effective working relationships within the PMO organization to ensure continued program health, as well as to develop consistency within PMO by sharing best practices and lessons learned and collaborating on continuous improvement activities

What you will need (required) :

  • 10 years of experience in program / project management in the medical device or healthcare industry; implant experience strongly preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field is required; a technical degree is a plus
  • Strong understanding of product development lifecycle, including design control, risk management, and regulatory submissions
  • Proven ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced dynamic environment

  • Excellent organization and communication skills are required; influencing others at all levels of the organization is essential
  • This role is ideal for a results-driven program management professional with the ability to build trusted partnerships with cross-functional teams and who is passionate about delivering high-quality medical devices to improve the lives of patients. If you thrive in a challenging and rewarding environment, we invite you to apply to join TMTT and help shape mitral and tricuspid therapies that will transform treatment for patients.
