Our Mission:
At Boston Scientific, we are dedicated to transforming lives through innovative medical solutions that improve the health of patients around the world.

We are seeking a Source-to-Pay & Interplant Product Owner on a permanent basis to join us on our mission.
About the role:

The initial focus will be on the next phase of deployments, including the US Commercial Divisions, Distribution Centers, and manufacturing sites in Penang and Galway, along with other critical global functions.
In this role, you will represent the global Magellan program strategy and implementation roadmap, driving planning, communication, coordination, and execution efforts. Key responsibilities include partnering with the business to support early engagement activities such as process mapping, risk assessments, process optimization, data cleansing, and application remediation. Additionally, you will lead efforts in scoping and global template alignment, assessing fit/gap requirements, and justifying necessary customizations, all within a structured governance and change management framework.

* Drive site assessments, deep dives, and design workshops during the mobilization phase.
* Develop ways of working and track key performance metrics to measure the success of the Advance Phase of the Magellan Program across deployments.
* Continuously assess effectiveness and identify opportunities for improvement and optimization.
* Drive responsibility, accountability, and ownership of actionable items, managing risks, solving problems, and facilitating prompt decision-making or escalations as needed.
* Drive all project management disciplines, including defining scopes, charters, roadmaps, and work plans.
* Work with the business to identify “big rock” items and critical decision points.
* Plan and execute early business mobilization activities such as data cleansing, application remediation, process mapping, and process standardization.
* Educate business teams on the existing global template.
* Act as a change leader, simplifying language and storytelling with a focus on change management.
* Communicate priorities, monitor progress, and escalate unresolved issues when necessary.
* Collaborate with the BCP team to proactively mitigate risks.
* Oversee functional elements of Capital Equipment and work with E2E Capital Equipment teams as appropriate.
* Develop and maintain the Global Template Library, including process maps, key design decisions, and demos for standard functionality.
