The Senior Manager, Medical and Clinical Evidence establishes and leads the integrated Medical Information and Clinical Evaluation functions for Neuromodulation & Pelvic Health (NMPH) Operating Units. This leader serves a strategic role for evidence interpretation and physician-facing scientific exchange-ensuring the portfolio's evidence is continuously sourced, synthesized, and translated into clear, balanced, compliant communications for Health Care Professionals (HCPs) and for regulators to support product safety, performance, and appropriate use.

This is a transformational leadership role focused on modernizing evidence operations end to end by integrating currently separate Clinical Evaluation and Medical Information teams into a single, high-performing capability to meet evolving global needs. The Senior Manager will set the strategy, governance, and operating model to deliver both regulatory-required outputs (e.g., clinical evaluation deliverables) and timely, high-quality physician-facing scientific responses. Success requires strategic vision, operational rigor, and strong cross‑functional influence.

Role Impact &

Key Responsibilities

The Senior Manager is accountable for designing and leading an evidence strategy and operating model that:

* Sets evidence strategy for physician- and regulator-facing use by defining and executing a multi‑year roadmap for how evidence is identified, assessed, synthesized, and translated across the NM+PH portfolio to strengthen evidence used in clinical and regulatory decision-making.

* Builds a governed evidence-to-content lifecycle by standardizing upstream evidence inputs so the same foundational synthesis can support multiple downstream needs, including clinical evaluation deliverables, labeling-aligned scientific responses, and proactive HCP-facing content.

* Leads and develops the integrated Medical Information and Clinical Evaluation teams, including hiring, coaching, performance management, and succession planning-building a culture of strong scientific judgment, patient-centered thinking, and compliance.

* Advances technology-enabled evidence excellence by deploying approved, validated, and auditable tools-including analytics/AI where appropriate-to enhance literature surveillance, evidence synthesis, and response quality, supported by clear governance and continuous improvement.

* Elevates physician-facing scientific exchange and medical information by building modern, proactive approaches that ensure communications are scientifically rigorous, balanced, timely, and clinically usable in a high-volume information environment.

* Provides cross‑functional leadership and executive…
