Director of Supply Chain

Description

 Based in Atlanta, GA, EyeQ Monitoring provides industry-leading security and business intelligence solutions to a variety of business sectors throughout the United States.

EyeQ Monitoring is looking for a Director of Supply Chain to build and own the function that powers our national growth. This is a strategic leadership role for someone who can turn procurement, vendor management, warehousing, and logistics into a genuine competitive advantage by lowering our cost to serve, eliminating onboarding delays, and building a supply chain that scales with the business.

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer and partnering directly with the executive team, you’ll own the end-to-end supply chain strategy, supply chain budget, and a team that includes the Warehouse Manager as a direct report and Purchasing Manager through a dotted-line relationship. You’ll be measured on outcomes, not activity, and you’ll have the opportunity to shape how this function operates as we grow.

This is an in-office position based out of our Atlanta, GA office, with 20–30% travel to warehouse, distribution, and vendor sites nationally.

Here at EyeQ people matter.

Any new team members we bring on have to live and breathe our core values, just like we do.

We value trusted partnerships.

We believe in the value of transparent, reliable, and growing relationships with our team and customers and turn away people and businesses that don’t fit.

We build to last.

We focus on long-term solutions and spend requisite time to ensure our solutions will work the first time.

We take the hill.

We are excited to take on challenging work, find new solutions and technology frontiers, and attack problems others are scared of. We celebrate failing fast, being transparent, and working with people we trust to run up those hills with us.

We enjoy the journey.

We take our customer needs but not ourselves seriously. Our work is a part of our life we want to enjoy unapologetically. We are proud of the mission we are entrusted with and the team we get to serve with every day.
