CATEGORY MANAGER IT PROCUREMENT

Vantive.
Una nueva empresa construida con nuestro legado Baxter se ha embarcado en la separación de nuestro segmento de cuidado renal, valorado en unos millones de dólares, para convertirlo en una compañía independiente.
Vantive* se basará en nuestro legado de casi 70 años en terapias agudas y diálisis domiciliaria para ofrecer la mejor atención a las personas a las que servimos.
Creemos que Vantive no sólo reforzará nuestro liderazgo en el ámbito de la atención renal, sino que también ofrecerá un trabajo significativo a quienes se unan a nosotros.
En Vantive, formarás parte de una comunidad de personas centradas, valientes y que no se conforman con lo mediocre.
Cada uno de nosotros está motivado para ayudar a mejorar la vida de los pacientes en todo el mundo.
Únete a nosotros para revolucionar el cuidado de los riñones y otros órganos vitales.
