Senior Project Manager - Supply Chain

PROJECT MANAGER BUSINESS III

At TE, you will unleash your potential working with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to create a safer, sustainable and more connected world. 

Job Overview

The Senior Project Manager is accountable for end-to-end delivery of Supply Chain projects (strategy through execution and sustainment), ensuring outcomes are achieved on time, on cost, and on quality. The role provides PJM governance across the portfolio (standards, stage-gates, reviews, reporting) and owns business case creation, ROI forecasting, and benefits realization tracking to ensure measurable impact and financial transparency

Roles & Responsibility :

1) End-to-End Project Delivery (Supply Chain)

• Lead cross-functional supply chain projects from initiation → planning → execution → closure → handover, ensuring successful adoption and sustainable results.
• Define project charters: scope, timelines, resources, milestones, deliverables, risks, dependencies, and stakeholder alignment.
• Drive risk management and change management, including impact assessments and mitigation plans to protect delivery and value.
• Manage project constraints and trade-offs across scope, timing, cost, and quality, and escalate decisively when required.
• Ensure robust closure: outcomes validated, documentation completed, learnings captured, and ownership transitioned to operations.

2) PJM Governance & Portfolio Management (PMO-style ownership)

• Establish and run project governance cadence (portfolio reviews, steering updates, decision forums), ensuring alignment and timely decisions.
• Ensure adherence to stage-gate / gate review processes, including preparation quality, readiness checks, and compliance.
• Own and continuously improve PJM standards: templates, best practices, reporting definitions, and operating rhythm across projects.
• Provide leadership visibility through KPIs and dashboards, enabling proactive management of risks, capacity, and value delivery.

3) Financial Steering, ROI Planning & Benefits Realization

• Build and maintain project business cases (cost/benefit analysis), including baseline assumptions, benefit levers, and ROI forecast.
• Track financial performance: actuals vs plan, variance drivers, corrective actions, and benefit realization status (savings, cost avoidance, productivity gains).
• Create financial transparency via standard reporting, partnering with Finance and stakeholders to validate impact and sustain gains.

4) Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Leadership

• Act as the central coordination point across Supply Chain, Procurement, Logistics, Operations, Quality, Finance, Digital/IT, and business stakeholders.
• Communicate crisply to leadership: progress, blockers, decisions required, risks, and ROI status; influence without authority to keep delivery on track.

5) Continuous Improvement & Transformation Mindset

• Identify “pain points” and convert them into structured initiatives delivering measurable outcomes (cost, service, quality, productivity).
• Apply Lean / CI practices and drive standard work, governance discipline, and continuous improvement culture in project teams.

EDUCATION/KNOWLEDGE
