You will play an important role in embedding Baxter Growth & Performance System (GPS) into how we operate, using Kaizen methodology, Lean principles, and Six Sigma tools to simplify end-to-end value streams, eliminate waste and unnecessary complexity, solve high-impact business challenges, accelerate growth, strengthen customer outcomes, and deliver measurable operational and financial results. Working across functions and organizational boundaries, you’ll partner with business and functional leaders to align stakeholders, turn opportunities into practical solutions, accelerate implementation, and sustain improvements across the organization. What You’ll Be Doing Lead high-impact projects and Kaizen events across business units and functions, from problem definition through rapid implementation and sustained performance, using Kaizen, DMAIC, and other fit-for-purpose improvement methods.

Analyze operational, financial, customer, and commercial data to identify root causes, variation, waste, growth opportunities, and performance gaps. Plan and facilitate Kaizen events, value-stream mapping, process-simplification workshops, and structured problem-solving sessions with senior leaders, functional experts, and frontline teams across organizational boundaries. Develop business cases, project charters, implementation plans, performance measures, and control plans, partnering with Finance and process owners to validate operational and financial results. Align sponsors and stakeholders across business units and functions, navigate competing priorities, and drive the decisions needed to advance enterprise initiatives. Train and coach business leaders, Lean leaders, and project teams in Kaizen, Lean Six Sigma, change leadership, and practical problem-solving. Mentor teams in applying continuous improvement methods, leading effective improvement events, and sustaining results. Exemplify Baxter GPS leadership and partner with business-unit and functional leaders to embed GPS principles, behaviors, improvement methods, management routines, and standard work into how Baxter operates.

Bachelor’s degree in engineering, operations, business, supply chain, or a related field. Demonstrated experience leading Kaizen events and end-to-end value-stream simplification projects with measurable outcomes. Strong proficiency in statistical analysis, root cause analysis, process mapping, and change management. Ability to influence stakeholders and lead teams without direct authority. Clear written and verbal communication skills. What Will Help You Stand Out Experience leading enterprise or multi-business-unit transformation initiatives in a complex, matrixed organization. Broad business experience across several functions, such as Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Finance, Commercial, Quality, Engineering, or shared services. Experience in medical devices, pharmaceuticals, or another regulated industry. Experience coaching Green Belts and building continuous improvement capability. Familiarity with operational, financial, commercial, and customer performance measures, including quality, yield, cycle time, productivity, inventory, cost, revenue, and service. What Success Looks Like Success in this role will include delivering sustained improvements across business units and functions, simplifying end-to-end value streams, shortening lead times, reducing handoffs and non-value-added steps, and delivering verified financial and operational benefits. You’ll also contribute to stronger customer and commercial outcomes, effective adoption of new ways of working, and increased Kaizen and problem-solving capability across the organization.
