What you'll do

• Team Leadership & Strategy: Lead and develop a centralized team of Materials Coordinators (MCs) across Canada and the U.S., ensuring consistent practices and high performance.

Drive alignment with Supply Chain (SC) initiatives such as Scope of Supply and annual bulk pipe purchases, and S4 Hana implementation.
• Surplus & Inventory Management: Lead surplus material strategies including project-to-project transfers, asset recovery, and disposition planning. Collaborate with Asset Recovery and SC to ensure surplus visibility and cost recovery mechanisms are in place.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as a liaison between Project Managers, Procurement, Engineering, and Warehousing to ensure seamless material flow and issue resolution. Support governance and compliance with SC policies, including material transfer pricing and inter-LOB cost allocations.
• Performance Monitoring & Reporting: Utilize dashboards and KPIs to monitor material request turnaround, requisition status, and delivery performance. Provide regular updates to leadership and stakeholders on team performance, risks, and improvement initiatives.
• Change Management & Communication: Manage organizational transitions, including team restructuring and role clarity between centralized and field MCs. Communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders to ensure transparency and alignment.
