Global Procurement Operations Manager

This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role that ensures our supply base runs efficiently and cost‑effectively. You’ll play a critical part in delivering accurate, on‑time, and compliant materials that support our fast‑paced innovation pipeline and global growth.
The ideal candidate is a strong communicator and analytical problem solver who thrives in cross‑functional collaboration—partnering with teams across Project Management, Supply Planning, Packaging/PD, Quality, Logistics, and Finance/AP to drive service, cost, and compliance excellence.
This position does not lead supplier selection or contract negotiations. It provides analytics, documentation, and operational execution that support strategic sourcing decisions and initiatives.
Responsibilities Procurement & PO Operations
Maintain vendor master price lists and ensure all POs reflect accurate pricing, quantities, lead times, commit dates, and Incoterms
Conduct weekly open‑order reviews and drive supplier commitment updates
Manage 3‑way match integrity (PO/receipt/invoice) and resolve discrepancies promptly with AP and suppliers
PPV, Chargebacks & Cost Control
Monitor and analyze purchase price variances (PPVs) versus standards; identify cost drivers and publish regular dashboards
Execute vendor chargebacks per policy (e.g., late shipments, labelling errors, quality issues) and maintain auditable documentation
Supplier Documentation & Compliance
Collect, track, and renew required supplier compliance documents (e.g., SDS/CoA, IFRA/INCI, REACH, Prop 65, FSC/PEFC, ethical‑sourcing declarations)
Maintain vendor and item master data (pricing tiers, MOQs, lead times, pack sizes); initiate change control when costs or specs change
Specifications & Change Control
Support the review and routing of specifications, drawings, artwork, BOMs, and vendor change notifications; ensure suppliers work to the latest approved revisions
Tariff & Trade Compliance
Monitor and interpret tariff and trade actions (HTS updates, Section 301/232, AD/CVD) and maintain SKU‑level exposure tracking
Govern HTS classification for components and finished goods; ensure accurate country‑of‑origin and substantial transformation documentation
Build landed‑cost models and propose duty mitigation strategies (e.g., supplier/geography shifts, FTA qualification, tariff engineering)
Coordinate FTA documentation (e.g., USMCA, KORUS, CAFTA) and maintain audit‑ready records
Partner with brokers/forwarders on customs entry accuracy and post‑summary corrections (PSCs)
Support evaluation and rollout of programs such as duty drawback, bonded/FTZ, and reconciliation where applicable
Prepare reports for leadership on tariff exposure, savings, and compliance risk
Freight & Inbound Logistics
Optimize inbound freight for components and finished goods to reduce landed cost and dwell time
Monitor and improve freight spend, container utilization, and demurrage/detention rates
Partner with Logistics to identify and implement process improvements in inbound operations
Cross‑Functional & Strategic Support
Partner with the Sr. Director of Project Management, Director of Supply Planning, and Warehouse Manager on cost‑saving initiatives (supplier rationalization, MOQ resets, pack redesign)
Provide risk visibility related to capacity, lead times, and geopolitical factors
Support new product development (NPD) launches with timely material readiness and first‑article builds
Systems, Reporting & Continuous Improvement
Build and maintain operational dashboards (PPV, PO adherence, supplier OTIF, invoice discrepancies, freight cost)
Develop and maintain SOPs for PO lifecycle management, discrepancy resolution, and compliance documentation
Drive ERP/MRP data integrity and champion process automation
Requirements
Minimum of 5 years of experience in procurement operations or sourcing execution (CPG, beauty, or personal care preferred; color cosmetics a plus)
Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management or a related quantitative field
Strong expertise in PO management, 3‑way match, PPV analysis, chargebacks, landed cost, and Incoterms

Highly organized, analytical, and proactive; able to thrive in a fast‑paced, dynamic environment
Excellent communication, follow‑up, and cross‑functional collaboration skills
Strong integrity, accountability, and work ethic
