Global Services Commodity Manager

You'll directly influence how NetApp delivers value to customers globally while advancing our sustainability goals and operational excellence.

Job Requirements

• Lead strategy across global reverse and forward operations, including RMA repair, asset recovery, and sales programs
• Manage and grow supplier relationships, serving as the primary point of contact for third-party partners and driving quarterly business reviews
• Negotiate contracts, SLAs, and MSAs that deliver competitive value and align with NetApp's business objectives
• Identify cost-saving opportunities by developing should-cost models, benchmarking pricing, and streamlining operational processes

• Ensure compliance with global regulations around waste management, recycling, and environmental standards

Education

A degree in Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, or a related field is helpful — but equivalent experience is equally valued. Professional certifications such as APICS, CPSM, or similar are a plus, not a prerequisite. We welcome candidates who have built expertise through apprenticeships, self-study, military service, or career transitions.

Compensation

The target salary range for this position is $113,050 - $168,300 USD. The salary offered will be determined by the candidate's location, qualifications, experience, and education and may be outside of this range. The range is based on 'On Target Earnings' (OTE) representing the total potential earnings, which is the sum of the base salary and potential commission earned when performance targets are achieved. Final compensation packages are competitive and in line with industry standards, reflecting a variety of factors, and include a comprehensive benefits package. This may cover Health Insurance, Life Insurance, Retirement or Pension Plans, Paid Time Off, various Leave options, employee stock purchase plan, and/or restricted stocks (RSU’s). These offerings are subject to regional variations and governed by local laws, regulations, and company policies.
