Work Flexibility: Hybrid

Stryker is one of the world's leading medical technology companies, driven by a mission to make healthcare better.

• Partner with Sales, Marketing, Finance and Supply Chain teams to support strategic business decision-making
• Provide forecasting insights, scenario analysis and risk assessments to senior leaders
• Represent Demand Planning within the Integrated Business Planning (IBP) process
• Support new product launches, portfolio transitions and lifecycle planning activities
• Drive continuous improvement across forecasting processes, reporting, analytics and planning tools
• Lead cross-functional projects that improve supply chain performance and business outcomes

Who You Are

• A strategic business partner – You enjoy building relationships and influencing decisions through forecasting insight and commercial awareness.
• Commercially minded – You understand how demand planning connects to business performance and value creation.
• A strong stakeholder manager – You confidently engage and influence stakeholders across Sales, Marketing, Supply Chain and Operations.
• A capability builder – You enjoy mentoring others and helping teams grow capability.
• Curious and adaptable – You thrive in ambiguity, ask thoughtful questions, and seek opportunities for improvement.
• A clear communicator – You can translate complex or ambiguous issues into compelling stories and actionable recommendations
