Head of Supply Chain and Procurement

The Director of Procurement owns enterprise procurement strategy, cost-savings delivery, vendor performance, and P&L accountability for all non-merchandise operational spend, partnering at a leadership level with Store Operations, Merchandising, Real Estate, Construction, and Accounts Payable to support new store openings, remodels, and seasonal resets. The role reports savings, cost avoidance, and category KPIs directly to executive leadership and operates in a fast-paced, cross-functional, multi-location retail environment where the Director is expected to own outcomes end-to-end rather than serve as a supporting participant.
Procurement Strategy & Vendor Management

• Own procurement strategy, cost-savings, service targets, and P&L accountability for enterprise procurement efforts including store fixtures, operational supplies, signage, and related materials.
• Set vendor and sourcing strategy, including whether to consolidate, dual-source, or re-bid, and lead negotiation of contract terms, pricing, service levels, and volume commitments with key suppliers.
• Own vendor performance management - scorecards, business reviews, escalation, and contract renewal/renegotiation cycles - rather than one-time price negotiation.
• Lead RFP/RFQ strategy and vendor selection for new sourcing needs, and own the resulting contract lifecycle from award through renewal.

Cross-Functional Partnership & Forecasting

• Partner at a leadership level with Store Operations, Merchandising, Real Estate and Construction to build and own the procurement forecasting model for new store openings, remodels, and seasonal resets.
• Lead procurement's contribution to special projects - new store rollouts, rebranding initiatives, or supply chain changes - as the accountable owner, not a supporting participant.

Own procurement spend-to-budget performance, identify and deliver cost-saving initiatives, and report savings, cost avoidance, and category KPIs to executive leadership.

• Establish and enforce purchasing policy, approval workflows, and compliance standards for enterprise procurement, balancing discipline with responsiveness.
• Own resolution design for invoice discrepancies in partnership with Accounts Payable, driving root-cause fixes rather than one-off corrections.
• Maintain and elevate reporting on procurement activity, vendor performance, and inventory accuracy for use in executive and cross-functional reviews.

Inventory Planning
- Establish and govern inventory planning and tracking standards across all locations to prevent stockouts and overstock.

Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain Management, Operations, or a related field required; 5 years of progressive experience in procurement, purchasing, or supply chain, ideally within a multi-location retail environment.

• Proven track record negotiating vendor contracts at scale and delivering measurable, documented cost savings.
• Strong analytical and financial acumen - able to build spend and budget analyses, business cases, and executive-level reporting from imperfect or fragmented data.
• Proficiency with procurement/inventory/ERP systems, with experience selecting or implementing tools a plus.
• Experience supporting new store openings, remodels, or multi-unit rollouts at scale.
• Familiarity with retail store operations and visual merchandising standards.
• Experience with procurement/P2P systems (e.g., Coupa, SAP Ariba, or similar).

Travel required to the corporate office, distribution locations, and stores for openings, remodels, and business reviews (approximately 15-25%).

• Must be able to operate keyboard and telephone for repetitive motion activities.
