Job Overview

The Supply Chain Materials Systems & Process Manager owns how materials move, are recorded, and are taught across the enterprise, and leads the team that confirms every site is ready to run those processes.

This role designs, standardizes, and scales materials management and warehouse processes, and serves as the subject matter expert (SME) for supply chain systems, inventory control, and warehouse operations. The Manager keeps physical material flow aligned with system execution in the ERP/WMS, and builds the training and certification programs that make that alignment repeatable at every site.

The Manager also leads the Supply Training & Analysis Team, which develops curriculum, delivers and certifies training, and analyzes performance data to confirm readiness across Supply Chain Materials.

Audits, KPIs, and Corrective Action

• Lead root cause analysis and implement corrective action plans (CAPs), and feed recurring findings back into SOPs and training.

• Report site readiness and performance trends to Supply Chain leadership.

Systems and Production Scaling

• Support production scaling with historical data pulled from current programs of record.
