Looking to join a team shaping the future of Global Sourcing? This is your opportunity.

We are seeking a strategic, results-driven leader to accelerate transformation and unlock enterprise value across Consumables, Health & Wellness (CHW) Sourcing for WM Inc.

As Senior Director, CHW Sourcing Enablement, you will lead three critical functions:
Strategy & Transformation, Value Execution, and Supply & Network Enablement. Together, these teams will translate sourcing strategy into actionable priorities, strengthen our global supplier network, and deliver measurable value from opportunity identification through execution.

This highly visible role requires a leader who can connect strategy to action, challenge traditional ways of working, and drive meaningful business outcomes. You will partner across Sourcing, Merchandising, Product Development, Finance, Supply Chain, Quality, and International markets to accelerate growth, strengthen resiliency, and maximize the power of our enterprise scale.

• Lead the activation, ongoing refresh, and integrated portfolio of CHW’s multi-year Sourcing strategy, aligning priorities to enterprise objectives, customer value, growth, resilience, and competitive advantage.
• Own the strategic portfolio and transformation agenda: establish clear priorities, value cases, governance, milestones, decision rights, ownership, and visibility to outcome realization across CHW’s highest-priority initiatives.
• Incubate, lead, and scale repeatable cross-functional value programs—including Sourcing Waves that translate strategic opportunities into actionable roadmaps, investment recommendations, and measurable outcomes across global sourcing, supplier ecosystems, commodities, cost to serve, packaging, quality, direct import, and network design.
• Shape decision-ready recommendations for senior leaders by synthesizing internal performance data with customer, category, supplier, commodity, and external-market signals; clearly articulate the decision, value at stake, trade-offs, and recommended path forward.
• Partner across functions, departments, and markets to remove barriers, accelerate critical decisions, and drive disciplined execution through implementation and value realization—while enabling business owners to retain accountability for commercial delivery.
• Advise senior leaders on sourcing, supplier, network, and investment decisions by leveraging market intelligence, supplier insights, business performance, and customer needs.

• Own the enterprise value pipeline, identifying, prioritizing, and tracking opportunities that improve cost, profitability, productivity, and sourcing effectiveness.
• Identify opportunities to unlock incremental value through cross-market sourcing, supplier leverage, commodity strategies, competitive intelligence, and cost benchmarking.
• Build and develop a high-performing, multidisciplinary team with strengths across strategy, analytics, data, RFX/bid execution, network optimization, technology, transformation, and business translation.
• Redefine human and AI work allowing technology to handle more data aggregation and routine analysis while associates focus on strategy, supplier relationships, negotiation, innovation, and judgment.
• Establish disciplined value tracking, performance management, and accountability to ensure opportunities translate into realized financial results.
• Partner with sourcing and merchandising leaders to prioritize high-impact…
