Demand Planning & Replenishment
- Analyze historical demand and forecast trends
- Optimize inventory levels to balance service and working capital
- Reduce slow‑moving and excess inventory
- Align stocking strategies with customer needs and growth goals
Supplier Strategy & Procurement
- Build and manage a portfolio of third‑party suppliers

- Implement second‑source strategies to reduce supply risk
- Negotiate contracts, pricing, and performance expectations
- Evaluate and onboard new suppliers
Performance, Systems & Analytics

- Leverage ERP tools (SAP Business One experience is a plus)
- Use dashboards and data to drive decision‑making and continuous improvement
Cross‑Functional Leadership
- Partner with Sales, Customer Service, Engineering, and Operations
- Support company‑wide growth initiatives and process improvements
- Influence stakeholders at all levels with clear communication and strong business acumen
🎯 What You Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Business, or related field
- 5–10+ years of progressive experience in supply chain, procurement, or operations leadership
- Background in industrial distribution or manufacturing is a plus
- Proven success in scaling operations, optimizing inventory, and improving margins
- Strong analytical skills and systems fluency (Excel, reporting tools, ERP)
- Excellent communication, leadership, and cross‑functional collaboration skills
- A continuous improvement mindset and a passion for operational excellence
💡 Why This Role Matters
You’ll be the architect of a supply chain built for scale—balancing service levels, working capital, and margin expansion while shaping the systems and strategies that fuel our next stage of growth.
