Johnson & Johnson announced plans to separate our Orthopaedics business to establish a standalone orthopaedics company, operating as DePuy Synthes. The process of the planned separation is anticipated to be completed within 18 to 24 months, subject to legal requirements, including consultation with works councils and other employee representative bodies, as may be required, regulatory approvals and other customary conditions and approvals. Should you accept this position, it is anticipated that, following conclusion of the transaction, you would be an employee of DePuy Synthes and your employment would be governed by DePuy Synthes employment processes, programs, policies, and benefit plans. In that case, details of any planned changes would be provided to you by DePuy Synthes at an appropriate time and subject to any necessary consultation processes.

The position is a strategic and operational thought partner for executive leadership, Business Unit Presidents, Commercial, R&D, Operations, and Investor Relations to ensure financial rigor, transparency, and credibility with external stakeholders.

The Head of FP&A is also responsible for the efficient delivery of function services.  This includes the formulation and enforcement of standard processes & policies, development & maintenance of the necessary team skill levels, and continuous improvement to optimize the FP&A operating model.
