The Supply Chain Manager leads purchasing, planning, warehouse, and shipping and receiving for CCS. The position is accountable for material being available to build to the schedule, for inventory being accurate and sized to the business, for supplier performance and cost, and for the development of the people in the function.

This is a build role. CCS is a long established manufacturer moving quickly to a new standard of performance, and the supply chain function is being rebuilt as part of that work. The position is expected to establish vision, policy, standard work, and measures where they do not exist today, and to raise the capability of the function rather than to administer it as it currently runs.

Due to the complex nature of the work, the position exercises independent judgment in sourcing strategy, inventory and planning policy, supplier selection and escalation, staffing and organization decisions within approved structure, and the tradeoffs between cost, schedule, and risk that surface daily in a low volume, high mix, regulated environment.

The first year of this position is hands on. The Supply Chain Manager is expected to work directly alongside the team, learn the products, the supply base, and the system in detail, stabilize daily execution, and earn credibility through visible ownership of the hardest problems in the function.

The measure of success after that is different. By the end of the first year the position is expected to have established policy, standard work, measures, and a management cadence that hold without constant intervention, and to have developed the people who run them. This role is judged by whether the function performs to standard when the Supply Chain Manager is not in the middle of it, including a named and developing successor for each critical position.

The position leads through the team. It sets direction, standard, and priority, removes obstacles, coaches judgment, and delegates real authority with real accountability attached. It does not hold decisions that belong to the team, and it does not build a function that depends on one person.

Material Availability and Planning:

• Own the material plan that supports the production schedule and the customer commitment, and the accuracy of the signals that drive it.
• Establish and maintain planning policy including lead time, safety stock, order policy, and lot sizing, and hold the organization to data integrity in the MRP system.
• Lead the supply side of the sales and operations planning process, converting the demand plan into a material and capacity plan with stated risks.
• Drive shortage resolution to closure and eliminate the recurring causes rather than managing the same shortages repeatedly.

Building the Function:

• Establish the vision, policy, and priorities for supply chain and communicate them clearly enough that the team can act on them without asking.
• Create standard work, documented process, and a management cadence for purchasing, planning, warehouse, and shipping and receiving where they do not exist today.
• Define the measures that matter for the…
