 This is a field oriented, execution focused procurement leadership role. While strategic thinking and sound judgment are important, success is defined by day to day execution, supplier reliability, and strong partnership with regional and field leadership.

 Ensure pricing fairness, service level consistency, and supplier accountability across regions
 </li>
 <li>
 Lead and develop a small team of regionally aligned procurement leaders
 </li>
 <li>
 Balance near term execution with continuous improvement in cost, efficiency, and supplier performance
 </li>
 <li>
 Operate with urgency, pragmatism, and sound judgment in a dynamic operating environment

 Bachelor's degree required; preference for candidates with a background reflecting strong academic rigor, such as completion of a challenging undergraduate or graduate program at a highly regarded U.S. institution
 </li>
 <li>
 Professional experience gained within highly reputable private sector organizations, large, well-run enterprises, ideally including FORTUNE 500-scale environments
 </li>
 <li>
 Demonstrated progressive career path, evidenced by increasing scope, responsibility, and leadership impact over time

 <li>
 Prior people leadership experience, ideally with regional or distributed teams
 </li>

 A blend of enterprise, in house procurement leadership experience combined with prior management consulting experience, particularly in operational transformation, procurement optimization, or large-scale execution environments
 </li>
 <li>
 Management consulting experience is most valuable when combined with subsequent in-house ownership of execution and outcomes.
 </li>
 </ul>

We'd rather align ourselves to the goals we're working to achieve and make sure we have necessary subject matter expertise to drive meaningful impact. We strive to orient ourselves around customer problems TOGETHER &ndash; getting the right people, with the right context, in the right rooms/Zooms to solve problems holistically.

We are skeptical about everything and precious about nothing: Ideas can and should come from anywhere, and we aren't tied to our own. We proactively source input. We talk to our customers and leads regularly and are quick to change course if we know there's a better or more impactful way to solve problems.

We consider the customer journey in all of our decisions: We know that no interaction exists in a silo and therefore understand how important every single one is. We ensure our strategy sets prospective and new customers up for success and drives long-term retention. We answer questions and address problems early and proactively. We understand the value of different channels, initiatives, and messages and know how to articulate impact and advocate for prioritization holistically.

We Execute For Impact: We don't subscribe to &quot;best practices&quot; or &quot;industry KPIs&quot;. We're uninterested in how we compare to &quot;benchmarks&quot;; instead we orient ourselves around being the best we can possibly be. Similarly, we don't subscribe to rigid or classical expectations of roles &ndash; i.e. acquisition is hyper-focused on improving customer retention and experience.

We Are Focused and Work Without Assumption: We are not beholden to ideas. We have goals and believe everything beyond that is a series of hypotheses to validate. To that end, we seek to work in sequence and not in parallel. We constantly ask ourselves, &quot;what's the most important hypothesis I should be working on right now? How do I confirm or reject that hypothesis as fast as possible?&quot;. We rarely have timelines/deadlines and are constantly taking in new information and adjusting our priorities accordingly. We don't expect to be perfect the first time.

<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
Our Belonging Philosophy:</h2>

At TFD, we believe Belonging is a shared commitment to creating a workplace where every person feels respected, valued, and empowered to be themselves. When people feel a true sense of belonging, they do their best work, take smart risks, and bring forward diverse perspectives &mdash; leading to stronger decisions and deeper relationships. 
We anchor this belief in a simple phrase: &quot;Everyone's welcome at the dog park.&quot; No matter your background, identity, or role, there's space for you here. There's no one way to show up at the dog park&mdash; just shared space, mutual respect, and the freedom to be yourself. Being included is just the beginning, it's about contributing your voice, growing through challenges, and building trust through shared goals. This philosophy guides how we lead, how we hire, how we communicate, and how we grow. 
 
We continuously evaluate to ensure we are creating a consistent experience that cultivates belonging for all employees, from hiring and performance reviews to talent development. We also believe Belonging happens in everyday moments of connection; lunch with a new teammate, a shared laugh, or a quick story about your weekend. Our structure includes biannual employee surveys, manager training, TFD camps, and support from Humans to ensure we're listening and learning from our Team.

Together, these efforts reflect what Belonging means at TFD: a culture where everyone can thrive.
