THE OPPORTUNITY

GeoStabilization International is a category-defining geohazard mitigation and infrastructure protection company operating across multiple entities at national scale. We are building enterprise-grade supply chain capabilities because we recognize that procurement excellence is a direct driver of margin expansion, project execution reliability, and long-term enterprise value.

The Director of Supply Chain will design, build, and lead GSI's sourcing and procurement function with real financial accountability. This is not a maintenance role. This is a build role — for a leader who wants to institutionalize a strategic function, drive measurable cost impact, and grow into broader organizational leadership over time.

Future scope for high performers may include:

• Operational leadership across shared services or enterprise functions
• Ownership of cross-company process transformation initiatives
• Business transformation or general management–adjacent leadership

DUTIES + RESPONSIBILITIES

Enterprise Supply Chain Leadership

• Establish and lead enterprise-wide supply chain and procurement strategy aligned to financial and operational objectives.
• Institutionalize advanced analytical and executional capabilities — negotiation discipline, structured problem-solving, and supplier governance — across the organization.
• Create consistency and leverage across multiple operating entities while respecting execution realities at the field level.
• Serve as the senior authority on sourcing strategy, vendor management, and procurement discipline.

Strategic Sourcing & Category Management

• Own strategic sourcing across direct and indirect spend categories at enterprise scale.
• Proactively assess spend concentration, contract timing, and sourcing optionality across the business.
• Drive competitive sourcing events — supplier rationalization, reverse auctions, structured renegotiations.

Vendor Management & Performance Governance

• Build supplier segmentation models and preferred vendor programs with clear performance standards.
• Establish supplier scorecards measuring cost, quality, service, and reliability.
• Create accountability mechanisms and escalation paths for underperforming suppliers.

Procure-to-Pay (P2P) Ownership

• Own the end-to-end P2P process from requisition through payment across all operating entities.
• Partner with Finance and AP to reduce invoice exceptions, eliminate payment delays, and improve cycle time.
• Establish and enforce purchasing controls, approval workflows, and spend compliance policies.
• Drive adoption of P2P technology to increase automation, reduce manual touchpoints, and improve data integrity.
• Own P2P KPIs: PO coverage rate, invoice match rate, on-time payment, and exception volume.

Operational Buying & PO Execution

• Oversee timely, accurate PO issuance in support of field operations and project execution.
• Establish SLAs for PO turnaround and hold the team accountable without disrupting project schedules.
• Build and maintain item master and supplier catalog data for faster, more consistent enterprise buying.
• Develop and enforce compliant buying channel strategy — reducing off-contract and maverick spend.
• Collaborate with Operations and Project Management to anticipate material needs, manage lead times, and prevent supply disruptions.

Financial Impact & KPI Ownership

• Own Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) as a primary enterprise KPI tied directly to margin performance.
• Partner with Finance to improve cost visibility, forecasting accuracy, and spend compliance.
• Lead disciplined reporting, variance analysis, and decision frameworks focused on measurable outcomes.

Team Leadership & Development

• Lead, coach, and develop a high-accountability strategic sourcing and procurement team.
• Set clear expectations for output, cadence, and results across the function.
• Build bench strength and capability to scale with enterprise growth.

SKILLS + EXPERIENCE REQUIRED

• 7+ years of leadership experience in strategic sourcing, procurement, or supply chain within industrial, manufacturing, logistics, or industrial services environments.
• Hands-on experience owning or transforming a P2P process, including PO issuance, invoice matching, and payment compliance.
• Demonstrated success driving TCO improvement and sustainable cost savings at scale.
• Proven ability to build structured, repeatable procurement processes in growing or changing organizations.
• ERP-based procurement experience (Viewpoint, SAP, Oracle, Procore, or similar).
• Track record of building, leading, and holding teams accountable for measurable results.
• Strong command of spend analytics, cost structures, and supplier economics.
• Ability to partner effectively with Finance, Operations, and executive leadership.
• Owner's mindset with high standards for execution, accountability, and follow-through.
