The Mission

The Service Inventory Manager is the heartbeat of our service supply chain. You don't just move boxes; you ensure the pulse of our global support operation remains steady. You are responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle of our service inventory - from the moment it arrives at our facility to the moment it reaches a technician's hands or a regional hub. You will be the architect of a pristine physical environment, a guardian of data accuracy, and the primary engine that gets parts to where they need to be, exactly when they are needed.

The GSS Mindset

In Global Services & Support, we don't just "fix things". We deliver confidence, at scale.

• Customer-First Obsession: You don't just resolve tasks; you prioritize the human experience. Every build, fix, or workflow is measured by its impact on the people who rely on our technology.
• The Ultimate Partner: You are a collaborator at your core. You act as the essential bridge between the "messy reality" of the field and our internal ambitions, building trust across departments to ensure a unified effort.
• Operational Evolution: You don't just follow a process; you own it. You find joy in creating order where none exists and possess the discipline to constantly "improve the system."
• Dynamic Adaptability: You thrive in a "small-team" environment. You are a true team player who is comfortable wearing multiple hats and navigating fast-paced change with patience and a relentless focus on the solution. We are the shepherds of chaos.
• The Culture Catalyst: You are the person everyone wants on their project team. You bring a "solution-first" energy to every interaction, acting as a cultural ambassador who elevates the morale and standards of those around you. You understand that how we work together is just as important as the work itself.
