Description

Join the Wildman Team – Where Your Work Makes a Difference!

Since 1952, Wildman has grown into a fourth-generation family business building more than a company—we are building a platform to glorify God, love and value people, and deliver industry-leading performance.

Wildman is looking for a Director of Supply Chain to build and lead a scalable, data-driven supply chain capable of supporting the company’s continued growth.

This is a highly strategic and hands-on leadership role responsible for transforming sourcing, purchasing, inventory, logistics, supplier management, demand planning, and supply chain systems across Wildman’s eight-location enterprise. The role will help position Supply Chain as a strategic business function that improves service, reduces cost, strengthens working capital, and creates sustainable competitive advantage.

You will lead an experienced existing team while building stronger systems, processes, accountability, and enterprise-wide standards. You will also serve as a strategic partner to Sales, Operations, Finance, and location leadership—bringing data, financial insight, and constructive challenge to decisions that affect cost, inventory, service, complexity, and risk.

The right person for this role can move comfortably between long-term strategy and detailed execution. You should be able to assess an evolving function, establish a clear future state, prioritize the highest-value opportunities, and lead meaningful change across multiple locations and business functions.
