# **About the Role**

Our Pune Global Capability Centre has grown from zero to more than 400 colleagues in approximately 18 months.

• Unite a matrixed community around one MiniMed identity, clear standards, high performance and an exceptional employee experience.
• Build a trusted partnership with global leaders, ensuring Pune is seen as a source of solutions and strategic talent—not simply capacity.

# **What you will own**

Strategy, growth and enterprise value

• Translate business demand into an integrated site strategy, capability roadmap and disciplined priorities; identify where Pune can create the greatest enterprise value.
• Partner with functional owners on new capabilities, transitions and transformation, with clear readiness, service, risk and value measures.
• Champion productivity, simplification, automation and continuous improvement; challenge work that adds complexity without impact.

Talent, leadership and culture

Specific targets will be agreed with global functional and executive leaders.

# **The leader we are looking for**

• A proven senior leader in a GCC, global shared services, technology, operations or similarly complex multinational environment, with experience scaling and transforming a significant site or business.
• A builder who has progressed an organization from rapid growth to mature, strategic delivery—and can demonstrate measurable results.
• An enterprise thinker who understands matrix operating models, earns influence without relying on formal authority and can engage confidently with executive stakeholders.
• A talent magnet and culture carrier: demanding about outcomes, generous in developing others and comfortable making decisions amid ambiguity.
• Strong judgement on governance, operational risk and change, balanced with speed, curiosity and an improvement mindset.
• Excellent communication and executive presence; bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience.

# **Experience that would add value**

Healthcare, medtech, life sciences or other regulated industries; newly established GCCs; digital, data, technology, customer operations or finance capabilities; and familiarity with the Pune and wider India talent ecosystem.
