Sr. Supply Chain Manager — IXD S&OP Execution, Supply Chain Execution Team (L6)
Description
The S&OP Execution Senior Supply Chain Manager owns the answer to: (1) did we execute the plan, (2) if not, why — and what do we do about it right now? This role is the single-threaded owner of Week 0 receipt execution for the IXD network, driving real-time operational decisions that directly impact backlog health, labor utilization, and downstream fulfillment speed. This is a high-visibility, high-autonomy role operating at the intersection of planning and operations.
Key job responsibilities
- Own WK0 execution for the IXD network: monitor receipt performance against locked plans, identify misses in real-time, and drive site-level and network-level corrective actions
- Build and maintain the weekly execution attribution bridge — decomposing variances into Low Work, Density, Hours, and CPLH buckets by region and flow type (NVF, NTI)
- Develop and operationalize severity-tiered response playbooks (S1–S4) with clear escalation paths, SLAs, and owner accountability
- Partner with IPEX Scheduling on assignment accuracy, arrival plan fidelity, and redirect/divert decisions
- Drive daily and weekly business reviews with data-driven narratives for executive leadership
- Identify systemic execution patterns and translate them into mechanism improvements — not just one-off fixes
- Build scalable reporting and automation to reduce manual data pulls and increase speed-to-insight
- Manage cross-functional relationships with ICT, PPT, Site Ops, and Finance to align capacity decisions with execution reality
About The Team
The S&OP Execution team owns the first mile of W0 Execution— where the plan meets reality. We sit within NACF IXD+ under S&OP and are responsible for ensuring that what was planned actually gets executed, and when it doesn't, we know why within hours — not days. We operate with a bias for action, a low tolerance for hand-waving, and a belief that execution excellence is a competitive advantage.
