About the Job
A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. Its your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
In this role, you will be responsible for all demand and fulfillment planning activities for the region across multiple product categories. You will manage internal/external stakeholders and represent supply chain operations for Google’s devices and services business.
Responsibilities
* Lead the monthly cross-functional sales and operations planning cycle, drive decisions and actions to mitigate risks and deliver the business plan.
* Lead projects and initiatives globally and regionally to build excellence, scalability, and reliability into our omni-channel planning operations (e.g., planning systems, processes, data, team, etc.).
* Lead collaborative, planning, forecasting, and replenishment discussions with third-party promoters to drive forecast accuracy. Act as a point of contact for all supply chain operations and performance reviews.
* Maintain optimal levels of channel inventory to balance availability through the product’s lifecycle and lead supply allocation exercises and manage order fulfillment.
* Support definition/blueprinting and implementation of new planning systems and processes, and drive continuous improvement initiatives in regional supply chain operations.
