Careers that Change Lives
Cardiac Rhythm Management (CRM) is where it all started in Medtronic. We are designing, producing, selling and servicing implants and technologies for cardiac rhythm disorders as well as heart failure. Examples are implantable monitors/loop recorders, pacemakers, cardiac defibrillators, and telecardiology equipment. Medtronic is known as a worldwide leader in this domain with a large spectrum of high-quality products, both from a proven efficacy and safety point of view. CRM offers a wide product portfolio to (cardiac) surgeons, interventional cardiologists and electrophysiologists for state-of-the-art treatment of cardiac diseases.
Two teams are working closely together to promote CRM products: The Account Manager Team and the Technical Consultant Team. Both work in close collaboration to serve our customers and drive sales, including fixed assets and consignment stock management in hospitals. According to daily planning, the Technical Consultant (TC) provides field support during implantation, follow up and troubleshooting of CRM devices, serving doctors and patients to optimize treatment. The consultant develops an in-depth knowledge of our available and upcoming technology and will as well organize product presentations to train colleagues, and hospital personnel to promote field product knowledge. As a Technical Consultant, your main goal is to maintain and develop business with all customers in South-Belgium.
