• Improve delivery and inventory performance using continuous improvement methods, performance management, data, and structured problem-solving.
• Facilitate Kaizen workshops and end-to-end process mapping to identify root causes, remove constraints, and build sustainable improvements.
• Develop and standardize supply chain processes to enable effective solutions across our global manufacturing network.
• Build capabilities across teams through coaching, mentoring, and Train-the-Trainer activities that strengthen a culture of continuous improvement.

What We're Looking For

• Strong knowledge of end-to-end supply chain management, with hands-on expertise in areas such as S&OP/SIOP, planning and forecasting, procurement, warehouse management, transportation, or customer relationship management.
• Practical experience leading or supporting supply chain transformation in manufacturing, either within an industrial organization or through consulting.
• Strong analytical and digital capabilities, including hands-on experience with SAP, planning and forecasting systems, Power BI or SAP BI, and advanced Excel.
• Proven ability to lead projects and influence cross-functional stakeholders in a matrix environment, combined with strong problem-solving, communication, presentation, and facilitation skills.
• Flexibility to travel approximately 70% of the time, including supporting transformation projects on-site for extended periods.

What You'll Get from Us

• We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
• You'll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
• We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
• You'll receive benefits like annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they're worth asking about-we think they're pretty great.
