JnJ names Tim Schmid as Executive Vice President, Worldwide Chairman of MedTech

“I want to thank Ashley for her leadership and 27 years of service at Johnson & Johnson. She has led significant transformation of our MedTech business resulting in improved performance and allowing us to better meet the needs of patients and consumers around the world,” said Joaquin Duato, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. “Her leadership of people and commitment to their development has been a hallmark of her tenure. I wish her all the best in the next chapter of her career.”

Ms. McEvoy’s passion for people and development of leaders has enabled the Company to confidently transition the sector leadership to Schmid, a respected, skilled, and tested, Credo-based MedTech leader. With 30 years of Johnson & Johnson experience, Schmid most recently served as the Company Group Chairman of Johnson & Johnson MedTech Asia Pacific (APAC). During his tenure, the APAC region has delivered above market growth and further strengthened our leadership position across multiple businesses. Schmid has also been instrumental in elevating the role of the region as a growing center for MedTech experimentation, digital innovation, and talent.

Schmid has held a variety of diverse leadership positions in sales, strategic marketing and general management across multiple businesses and geographies, including Chief Strategic Customer Officer for Johnson & Johnson MedTech, where he helped lead transformational changes to Johnson & Johnson’s business-to-business relationships with health systems in the U.S.

“We are pleased to have the depth of talent at Johnson & Johnson that allows us to transition to Tim, a respected, results-driven and Credo-based leader,” said Duato.
