Supply Chain Consultant

Job description

If you are most comfortable maintaining a planning cycle someone else designed , this role is not for you . I f you get energized by diagnosing a broken process, building a solution, and making it stick — keep reading. What You Will Do Lead Projects, Not Just Support Them Own supply chain and operations projects from diagnosis to implementation — defining scope, aligning stakeholders, managing timelines, and delivering results that last. Drive cross-functional initiatives across commercial, manufacturing, finance, and logistics teams. You know how to build consensus and keep things moving. Think in Business Impact Translate operational complexity into business decisions. Your value is not the analysis — it is what you recommend based on it and how you get stakeholders to act on it. Build the KPIs, do not just track them. You define what good looks like, set the metrics, and create visibility for leadership. Design Better Processes Improve planning processes across S&OP, demand, and supply planning — building frameworks and governance that teams can sustain after you are done. Identify root causes, not just symptoms. Go Deep When It Matters When a project requires hands-on data work, system configuration, or operational analysis in the ERP or the APS, you do it, not because it is expected, but because it solves the problem faster. Use Power BI or equivalent tools to visualize findings and communicate insights to different audiences. Communicate With Clarity Whether it is a steering committee or a planning team, you know how to frame a message for your audience. Deliver structured presentations, reports, and dashboards that drive decisions — not just inform. 5+ years of experience in supply chain planning, operations, or consulting — with a track record of leading projects, not just supporting them. Depth in at least one area : S&OP, Demand Planning, Supply Planning, Master Data Management, or Operation s — and the curiosity to engage across all of them. A consultant's mindset : you frame problems before jumping to solutions. You think in terms of business impact, not task completion. Demonstrated project management capability — you have structured and delivered cross-functional initiatives. PMP is a plus, but results matter more. Analytical fluency — you are comfortable with data and use it to build arguments, not just reports. Working knowledge of an ERP and/or APS — you do not need to be a configurator, but you need to understand how these systems shape planning decisions. SAP and/or Kinaxis will be a plus. Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms) and an ability to apply them to improve analysis, streamline processes, and enhance delivery outcomes. Strong stakeholder communication — written, verbal, and visual. You can present to a VP and work with a planner on the same day. You Will Fit in If... You have worked in or alongside pharma, biotech, or life sciences environments (preferred, not required). You have navigated global or matrix organizations and know how to get things done without direct authority. You have been part of an end-to-end supply chain transformation — and can speak to what made it work. About the Job Location: Boston, MA preferred. We are also open to remote consultants located within the Eastern Time Zone.
