The Director, Supply Chain is a key operational and strategic leader responsible for managing and optimizing end-to-end purchasing and supply chain functions across PartsSource's five affiliated companies.This is a high-autonomy, high-impact Director-level role for a supply chain leader who operates equally well as a strategic architect and a hands-on executor, and who thrives in a complex, multi-entity environment where no two affiliate companies are exactly alike. What You'll Do Purchasing Team Leadership * Lead, coach, and develop a centralized Purchasing Team that supports all five affiliated PartsSource companies; establish clear roles, responsibilities, and performance expectations that foster accountability and professional growth. * Implement cross-training programs so team members can support multiple affiliate companies, building operational redundancy, flexibility, and shared institutional knowledge across the portfolio. * Standardize purchasing workflows, tools, and communication protocols across all entities to eliminate duplicated effort, inconsistency, and single points of failure. Inventory Management & Backorder Reduction * Own and manage inventory levels across all five affiliated companies, setting and monitoring reorder points, safety stock targets, and order quantities aligned to customer service requirements. * Drive immediate and sustained reduction in back-order rates as a primary KPI; develop and execute action plans to bring backorders to target thresholds and maintain them there. * Analyze demand patterns, historical usage, and lead time variability to build accurate inventory forecasting models that reduce both stockouts and excess inventory. * Collaborate with warehouse and operations teams to align inventory targets with physical space, handling capacity, and fulfillment requirements. * Monitor and report on inventory health metrics (turns, days on hand, fill rates, backorder %) on a weekly and monthly basis. * Increase and maintain the number of parts that meet internal cost, quality, and availability minimums for "Performance Line" designation. Vendor & Supplier Management * Manage end-to-end vendor relationships across all affiliated companies, consolidating supplier bases where appropriate to maximize leverage and simplify operations. * Negotiate pricing, terms, and service agreements leveraging combined spend across all five companies to drive sustained cost reduction and improved supply terms. * Track and manage supplier lead times; hold vendors accountable to performance standards through structured scorecards and regular business reviews with a goal of minimizing lead time and the cost of capital tied to held inventory. * Identify, qualify, and onboard new suppliers as needed; maintain a diversified and resilient supply base that accounts for geopolitical risk and single-source dependency. * Resolve supplier escalations quickly to minimize impact on product availability and customer service levels. Data-Driven Operations & Reporting * Leverage data and analytics tools to surface operational insights, identify inefficiencies, and prioritize improvement initiatives across all affiliates. * Build and maintain dashboards and reporting tools - in collaboration with data and analytics teams - that track key supply chain KPIs across all affiliated companies in real time. * Prepare and present weekly and monthly reporting to senior leadership covering backorder status, inventory health, vendor performance, cost savings, and SOP adoption rates. SOP Development & Continuous Improvement * Design, document, and implement comprehensive SOPs for all core supply chain functions including purchasing, receiving, inventory management, and vendor management. * Establish a continuous improvement cadence - regularly reviewing SOPs against performance data, benchmarks, and team feedback to refine and elevate standards across affiliates. Cross-Company Standardization & Efficiency * Act as the connective tissue across all five affiliated companies - identifying opportunities to standardize processes, consolidate purchasing, and share resources and expertise. * Facilitate cross-company collaboration sessions to align on best practices, shared vendor programs, and coordinated inventory strategies. * Develop shared sourcing strategies that allow smaller affiliated entities to benefit from the scale and leverage of the broader PartsSource portfolio. What You'll Bring Your Background * 7-10+ years of progressive supply chain, purchasing, or operations experience, including demonstrated success in multi-site or multi-entity environments. * 3-5+ years in a leadership or management role with direct reports; proven track record of building and developing purchasing or supply chain teams. * Demonstrated ability to reduce backorder rates and improve inventory health across a complex, distributed supply chain. * Strong vendor negotiation skills with experience leveraging consolidated spend across multiple business units to drive cost reductions and improved supply terms. * Expertise in SOP development, process documentation, and continuous improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, or equivalent). * High proficiency with data and analytics - comfortable working with ERP systems, dashboards, BI tools (Power BI, Tableau), and Excel to drive decisions, not just report them. * Demonstrated ability to operate as both a strategic architect and a hands-on executor; equally comfortable setting direction and managing day-to-day operational details. * Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Operations Management, or a related field required; MBA or advanced degree a plus. Preferred * Experience supporting multiple business entities, divisions, or affiliated companies simultaneously. * Familiarity with medical/surgical, industrial, or B2B distribution supply chains. * APICS CSCP, CPSM, or equivalent professional supply chain certification. * Change management experience leading teams through process transformation and cross-company standardization.

When you solve a supply chain problem, you make sure it stays solved.: Initiative & Resourcefulness, Continuous Improvement Serve with Purpose * You understand that a backorder isn't just an inventory metric - it's a part a hospital technician is waiting on to keep a piece of equipment running.

You know that sustainable change requires buy-in, not just directives.: Change Readiness, Learning Agility Collaborate to Win * You align Purchasing, Warehouse, Operations, Finance, and affiliate company stakeholders around shared supply chain goals - and you do it through data, relationships, and clear communication, not organizational authority.: Alignment & Cohesion, Influence & Communication, Team Orientation * You represent the supply chain function with credibility and confidence at the executive level, translating operational metrics into strategic implications leadership can act on.: Influence & Communication, Executive Presence Challenge the Status Quo * You look at a backorder report and ask why - not just how many. You dig into the root cause, fix the system, and put a process in place so it doesn't happen again.: Curiosity & Problem Solving, Data-Informed Decision Making * You benchmark affiliate performance against each other and against best-in-class standards, and you use what you find to continuously raise the bar across the portfolio.: Continuous Improvement, Data-Informed Decision Making Benefits & Perks * Competitive compensation package with salary, incentives, company ownership/equity, and comprehensive benefits (401k match, health, college debt reduction, and more!) * Career and professional development through training, coaching and new experiences. * Hybrid culture with new & beautiful workspaces that balance flexibility, collaboration, and productivity. * Inclusive and diverse community of passionate professionals learning and growing together.
