Global Hardware Supply Chain & Vendor Operation Lead - Philippines Only

Role mission: Get the correct hardware from the best available source to the customer at the lowest responsible total landed cost and fastest reliable delivery, while protecting availability, quality, compliance, data accuracy and margin. Why this role exists now: Large, multi-market programs require demand planning, batch purchasing, importer-of-record decisions, taxes, domestic freight, provisioning and customer pricing to work as one system. Vendor and product decisions span multiple suppliers, long hardware lead times, multiple currencies, regional price books and changing certification requirements. Order errors can originate in master data and become fulfilment, customer and margin problems. This work depends on cross-functional coordination and recurring exception handling; it is materially larger than quarterly price-list maintenance. Recommendation basis: Hire this as one full-time role. The work is coherent when the person owns the end-to-end operating flow, from demand signal and vendor sourcing through landed cost, fulfilment, provisioning, delivery and CRM master-data accuracy. Price-list administration belongs in the role; pricing policy and margin approvals do not. Not in scope: General account management, customer-success ownership, support escalation management and unrelated regional QBR work. The role collaborates on commercial and customer commitments but remains accountable for the hardware operating flow. Assessment: Candidates will complete a take-home scenario exercise (realistic data pack covering demand planning, landed cost, routing, provisioning and CRM price governance) followed by a 45-minute live review.
