  • PE-backed company experience strongly preferred, ideally across CPG, industrials, or consumer sectors
  • AI fluency and ability to use LLM’s and other AI tools to solve supply chain problems
  • Six Sigma / Lean credentials a plus but not required
More about this role

Owns end-to-end supply chain transformation engagements — S&OP, network design, strategic sourcing, and inventory/working capital optimization — for PE sponsors and portfolio companies. This role anchors CFGI's supply chain pillar and requires someone who has run large, cross-functional transformation programs, not just delivered point diagnostics.

Lead S&OP redesign engagements: demand planning, supply planning, integrated business planning cadence.

  • Drive strategic sourcing initiatives: should-cost modeling, supplier consolidation, category strategy, tariff mitigation and onshoring economics.
  • Design supply chain network optimization: footprint analysis, distribution/logistics cost-to-serve modeling.
  • Lead working capital and inventory optimization workstreams tied directly to cash and EBITDA outcomes.
  • Build CFGI's supply chain methodology and delivery collateral (case studies, diagnostic frameworks, maturity models).
  • Support due diligence with supply chain risk assessments and 100-day value creation plans for new platform investments.
  • Engage directly with PE sponsor operating partners and portfolio company COOs/CSCOs to help sell margin expansion engagements.
