Key Responsibilities

  • Support site-level teams with forecasting, material availability, and capacity planning for new product introductions and operational shifts.
  • Synchronize supply chain planning across all facilities to reduce variability and improve service levels.
• Manufacturing & Engineering Alignment
  • Collaborate closely with operations, product development, engineering, and quality teams to ensure alignment between supply chain capabilities and production requirements.
  • Support new product introductions (NPIs) with agile sourcing strategies and proactive material readiness plans.
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives to reduce lead times, improve yield, and enhance scalability.
  • Oversee strategic sourcing, supplier selection, contract negotiation, and supplier performance management.
  • Drive dual/multi-sourcing strategies to mitigate risks associated with single-source or offshore suppliers.
  • Implement structured supplier scorecards and corrective action systems to ensure compliance with technical specs, delivery commitments, and reliability targets.
  • Oversee domestic and international logistics, including import/export, customs clearance, and compliance with trade regulations.
  • Optimize cost, shipping lanes, freight contracts, and warehousing strategies for both just-in-time and buffer-stock models while ensuring high customer service levels.
• Inventory & Demand Planning
  • Lead S&OP processes and demand planning efforts to balance inventory levels with customer needs.
  • Drive inventory accuracy and working capital optimization across the network.
  • Implement data-driven planning tools and models to improve forecast accuracy.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Implement talent development and succession planning strategies.
• Systems & Process Optimization
  • Standardize and digitize supply chain processes and workflows across all locations.
  • Leverage ERP, MRP, and advanced analytics tools to improve visibility, planning, and decision-making.
  • Lead supply chain transformation initiatives, including automation, sustainability, and technology adoption.
  • Identify and mitigate supply chain risks, including disruptions, regulatory issues, and geopolitical challenges.
  • Ensure adherence to internal controls, industry standards, and legal requirements.
