Job Description

BENEFITS: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K

The Vice President, Enterprise Supply Chain Transformation will lead the design and execution of a multi-year supply chain transformation agenda across a complex manufacturing and distribution network. This leader will have functional responsibility for supply planning, demand planning, and customer service, while driving enterprise-wide improvements in planning processes, order management, inventory optimization, service performance, production alignment, and end-to-end decision making.

This role requires a strategic yet hands-on leader with deep experience in data-driven supply chain transformation within a multi-site manufacturing environment. The ideal candidate has successfully transformed planning capabilities across organizations with multiple plants, distribution centers, diverse product lines, and significant operational complexity—preferably in industries such as flooring, building products, consumer durables, industrial manufacturing, or related sectors—and is equally comfortable setting enterprise direction and getting into the details to help the team solve problems.

The successful candidate will embrace change, build followership across functions, and bring a strong track record of modernizing supply chain processes, systems, and capabilities to improve service, working capital, forecast accuracy, and operational agility.

JOB DUTIES:

Qualified individuals must have the ability (with or without reasonable accommodation) to perform the following duties:

Supply Chain Transformation Leadership

• Lead the end-to-end transformation of supply chain planning capabilities across a network of approximately a dozen manufacturing facilities and distribution centers.
• Develop and execute a roadmap to improve supply chain performance through enhanced planning processes, tools, governance, analytics, and organizational capability.
• Identify and prioritize transformation opportunities across demand planning, supply planning, inventory management, S&OP / IBP, constrained supply allocation, scenario planning, and network synchronization.
• Drive standardization of planning processes while ensuring practical flexibility across product categories including wood, vinyl, and porcelain.
• Push as much planning and decision making to the local level as practical, while establishing standardized processes, governance, and a common global planning template to ensure consistency, scalability, and enterprise visibility.
• Partner with executive leadership to align transformation priorities with business strategy, growth objectives, customer service expectations, and margin goals.

Functional Leadership: Demand Planning, Supply Planning and Customer Service

• Own the design, governance, and performance of the company’s demand planning, supply planning, and customer service processes.
• Improve forecasting and demand signal quality through stronger analytics, cross-functional collaboration, and disciplined planning routines.
• Lead supply planning processes that balance customer service, production constraints, inventory health, transportation realities, and working capital.
• Lead the customer service function to strengthen order management, issue resolution, customer communication, service recovery, and alignment between customer commitments and operational execution.
• Build planning and service capabilities that support variable lead times, diverse manufacturing flows, seasonal demand patterns, product complexity and differentiated customer requirements.
• Establish clear planning and customer service accountability, metrics, and decision rights across commercial, operations, procurement, and distribution teams.

Data-Driven Decision Making

• Champion the use of data, analytics, and digital tools to drive better planning decisions and operational outcomes.
• Translate complex data into actionable business insights that improve forecast accuracy, plan adherence, inventory productivity, capacity utilization, and on-time delivery.
• Partner with IT, finance, operations, and commercial teams to improve data quality, reporting, and visibility across the supply chain.
• Implement KPI dashboards and planning performance routines to monitor service, inventory, forecast bias/error, schedule attainment, capacity utilization, and OTIF performance.
• Leverage scenario analysis and decision support tools to improve responsiveness to demand changes, supply disruptions, and network constraints.

Cross-Functional and Operational Partnership

• Serve as a key bridge between commercial, manufacturing, procurement, logistics, customer service, finance, and IT.
• Partner closely with plant leaders and supply chain operations teams to ensure planning outputs are actionable, realistic, and aligned with plant capabilities.
• Drive stronger integration between sales, demand planning, manufacturing scheduling, and distribution execution.
• Work closely with Product Management to measure product vitality, identify low-performing or non-strategic SKUs, and accelerate cross-functional decisions on SKU rationalization.
• Support network-wide alignment across make-to-stock, make-to-order, and hybrid planning environments as applicable.
• Influence leaders at all levels to adopt new ways of working and sustain process discipline.

Change Leadership and Capability Building

• Lead organizational change with credibility, resilience, and strong communication.
• Build and develop a high-performing planning and transformation team capable of driving continuous improvement.
• Operate as a player/coach—developing the team while personally engaging in critical analyses, process design, issue resolution, and execution follow-through when needed.
• Create a culture that values transparency, accountability, collaboration, and continuous learning.
• Establish training, governance, and routines that embed new tools and processes into day-to-day operations.
• Act as a change agent who can challenge the status quo while bringing teams along in a constructive and practical way.
