Company and context
- Every team member in this global network is dedicated to permanently optimizing processes in order to increase quality and efficiency standards, ensuring that organizational future readiness is balanced with high-precision launch execution.
- We are seeking a Global Product Launch and Supply Chain Lead to manage organization-wide integration initiatives and new product commercialization on an international scale.
- This role functions with an operational-to-strategic split that balances 60% operational execution, coordinating timelines, managing volume ramps, and resolving immediate cold chain bottlenecks, with 40% strategic direction focused on footprint optimization and high-level systems thinking.
- Operating as a transformational project leader, you will navigate highly ambiguous, cross-functional challenges to bring complex instruments and hardware systems successfully to market. The Opportunity
- Securing global launch readiness and achieving successful pilot-to-commercial scaling across diverse countries drives organization-wide performance and long-term commercial impact.
- Dedicating 60% of your time to day-to-day timeline coordination, volume ramps, and immediate cold chain or regulatory compliance bottleneck resolution ensures products hit the market smoothly.
- Executing multi-year planning in the early stages of the Product Life Cycle positions the network for future readiness regarding hardware solutions that may not launch for two to five years.
- Challenging the status quo involves introducing new technologies and design methodologies to break down structural silos and foster a transformational leadership environment.
- Overseeing critical, large-scale integration projects encompasses managing E2E supply chain workflows, divisional launches, and technical problem-solving across internal manufacturing and external sites.
- Influencing internal leaders across the DIA Supply Chain Leadership Team, Finance, and R&D happens on a daily or weekly basis alongside negotiating global design standards with external Logistics Service Providers.
