In this expanded leadership role, she will help drive hiring strategy and talent acquisition execution across the EMEA region, supporting business growth through stronger talent pipelines, stakeholder partnership, and high-quality recruitment delivery across diverse markets.
In her latest move at Boston Scientific, Paulina Wierzba transitions into the role of Team Lead, Talent Acquisition EMEA, following a year-long stretch assignment as Talent Acquisition Team Coordinator – Central Eastern Europe and DACH.
