POSITION SUMMARY: The Strategic Sourcing Director is responsible for shaping and executing enterprise sourcing strategies that optimize vendor partnerships.

The Director regularly engages with senior leaders, providing counsel on supplier strategy, market dynamics, and cost optimization opportunities. This role does not have direct reports but functions as a subject-matter leader and trusted advisor.

• Effective Communication: The ability to convey information clearly and persuasively, both in writing and verbally. This includes active listening, providing constructive feedback, and adapting communication styles to different audiences.
• Decision-Making: The capability to make sound decisions quickly and confidently, even under pressure. This involves evaluating options, considering the potential impact, and taking responsibility for the outcomes.
• Team Building: The skill to create, develop, and lead high-performing teams. This includes recognizing and leveraging individual strengths, promoting collaboration, and motivating team members to achieve common goals.
• Adaptability: The ability to remain flexible and open to change in a dynamic work environment. This includes being able to pivot strategies, embrace new ideas, and manage uncertainty effectively.
