About The Position

This is a central role leading projects within the dedicated task force of DeliveryWorks, who is chartered to diagnose and permanently fix the root causes behind chronic delivery failures. As a Supply Chain Program Manager, you will own end-to-end initiatives within a portfolio of projects from problem definition through corrective action closure, serving as the primary integration point across programs, supply chain, planning, procurement, quality, engineering, and manufacturing.

Requirements

• Associate degree with 7+ years of supply chain or operations experience and program/project management experience, OR
• Bachelor’s degree with 5+ years of supply chain or operations experience, and program / project management experience, OR
• Master’s degree or higher with 3+ years of supply chain or operations experience, and program / project management experience, OR
• JD/PhD, OR
• 9+ years of supply chain or operations experience, and program / project management experience in lieu of a degree
• Must be a U.S. Citizen

Nice To Haves

• Significant experience in supply chain and operations within a manufacturing industry
• Understanding of ERP, MRP, planning systems, and data tools (Excel required; Power BI/Tableau a plus)
• Understanding of key supply chain processes such as planning / SIOP, sourcing, manufacturing, delivery and delivery governance (short term interval control, rate readiness, ERP compliance, data integrity management). Logistics, warehousing, and returns experience is not required
• Strong track record driving cross-functional accountability without direct authority — this role must move people to closure, not just track them
• Comfortable dealing with ambiguity and complex environments
• Excellent communication skills

Responsibilities

• Serve as the central point of accountability for the assigned delivery improvement initiatives: charter, governance, and outcomes
• Manage a portfolio of active and potential improvement projects, taking accountability for the schedule, milestones, risk, and regular reporting of progress.
• Convene and run recurring task force reviews with cross-functional leads (planning, procurement, quality, manufacturing, engineering) to drive issues to closure — not just status updates
• Maintain communications with stakeholders including status reporting to senior stakeholders as defined in the project governance structure for the assigned projects
• Manage project changes, such as cancelling projects or changing scope of projects to react to changes in direction
• Escalate systemic or cross-functional blockers to leadership with clear options and recommendations
• Validate that implemented fixes eliminate recurrence through follow-up audits
• Institutionalize permanent fixes into standard work — updated planning parameters, supplier requirements, or process controls — so the task force can eventually stand down
• Support and/or lead communities of practice across the global DeliveryWorks program management team
