The Senior Vice President (SVP), Operations & Supply Chain is a senior leadership role responsible for the end-to-end operational performance of the Windows & Doors Business Unit (BU), directly enabling delivery of the BU’s customer value proposition. This leader owns the strategy, execution, and accountability for the operational metrics that matter most to customers and the business: safety, quality, delivery, cost, and workforce stability.

This role requires a leader who can operate effectively across a matrixed organization — balancing centralized standards and capability-building with regional/commercial execution needs — and who leads primarily through influence, cross-functional partnership, and organizational credibility rather than through direct control alone.

Key Accountabilities & Metrics

The SVP will build strategy for, and hold the organization accountable to, the following core operational metrics:

• Safety Performance – Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR)
• Quality – Field Failure Rate
• Delivery – On Time in Full (OTIF)
• Cost – Conversion Cost
• People – Employee Turnover Rate

These metrics represent the core operating scorecard for the role and will be the primary basis on which performance is evaluated. The SVP is expected to translate BU strategy into a clear operating plan against each metric, cascade goals through the regional and functional organization, and drive disciplined execution and course-correction.
