Staff Auditor
Careers that Change Lives
The Staff Auditor is an established, professional individual contributor within the Corporate Audit team. The Staff Auditor assists with, and works independently on, the execution of department projects (audit, consulting, and administrative), with moderate oversight from more senior team members.
As a member of the Corporate Audit team, the Staff Auditor will contribute to Corporate Audit’s mission, which is to preserve and enhance shareholder value through the independent and objective identification and evaluation of risks, the assessment of the integrity and effectiveness of internal controls, and the evaluation and promotion of operational excellence across the global Medtronic enterprise.
We believe that when people from different cultures, genders, and points of view come together, innovation is the result — and everyone wins. Medtronic walks the walk, creating an inclusive culture where you can thrive.
