Chair cross‐functional forums to evaluate obsolescence‐ or supplier‐change‐driven replacements, develop business cases, and drive timely decisions.
Document decisions, approvals, and mitigations, and maintain data integrity across ERP, PLM, and supplier management systems.

The Essential Requirements Of The Job Include
Bachelor's degree in business, operations, supply chain management, or engineering.
