The Program Manager, Global Supply Chain is responsible for leading complex, high-value, cross-functional programs that advance the company's global supply chain strategy. This role provides end-to-end leadership to accelerate supply chain performance, resilience, quality, cost efficiency, and digital transformation.
As the leader for high-impact supply chain programs, this role serves as the single point of accountability for program performance, ensuring alignment with enterprise objectives, financial targets, and long-term strategic outcomes. This role partners closely with key stakeholders across Global Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Engineering, Supplier Quality/Supplier Development (SQ/SD), Finance, Sales, Logistics, and Corporate Functions to drive execution, resolve escalating issues, and optimize performance across global networks.
This role requires exceptional influence, cross-functional alignment, and the ability to lead programs across a matrixed global environment. This role must navigate complex tradeoffs, prioritize effectively, manage risk, and drive measurable results across the end-to-end supply chain.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
- Own delivery of large, complex global supply chain programs, managing scope, timelines, cost, risks, and performance.

- Manage programs focused on improving quality, stability, and consistency across the supply chain.
- Lead initiatives that apply digital tools, automation, AI, or analytics to improve planning, execution, and visibility.
- Align global stakeholders by setting clear priorities, managing dependencies, and facilitating trade-off decisions.
- Provide clear executive-level communication, status reporting, and decision support for major supply chain programs.
- Lead through influence in a matrixed environment, driving decisions and outcomes without direct authority.
- Partner with Finance to manage budgets, track financial impacts, and ensure ROI and margin targets are met.
- Manage change control and financial impacts across a portfolio of global supply chain programs.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Engineering, Operations, or a related field — or equivalent relevant experience.
- 5 years progressive experience in Operations, Supply Chain, Program/Project Management, Strategy, or related disciplines within a complex, cross-functional environment.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Professional certifications (CPIM, CSCP, PMP) beneficial but not required.
- Demonstrated success leading large-scale, enterprise-level initiatives, strategic programs, or cross-functional transformation projects.
- Experience driving execution across matrixed teams and influencing stakeholders at multiple levels of the organization.
Knowledge / Skills / Abilities:
- Strong understanding of end-to-end supply chain processes: sourcing, planning, supplier management, logistics, quality, and fulfillment.
- Expertise in program and project management methodologies, operational planning, and complex execution.
- Advanced analytical skills with experience conducting data-driven decision making, risk modeling, and process optimization.
