Interim Supply Chain Manager
Interim Supply Chain Manager as a reliable support in the company
In order not to jeopardize the company´s value chain in the event of a vacant manager position in Supply Chain Management (SCM), it is worthwhile to opt for an interim solution. On the one hand, it creates the necessary time window during the search for a suitable candidate, and on the other hand, there are countless areas in SCM, in particular, that need to be kept in focus and continuously aligned with the company´s strategy.
Clear strategy – comprehensive vision
No company can afford shortfalls that are detrimental to value generation. An interim Supply Chain Manager monitors and optimizes procurement, planning, manufacturing, logistics and the distribution of goods and services and acts as a partner at eye level for the CEO.
A smooth flow of goods and information is guaranteed by the assignment of an Interim Manager. He is used to getting started directly with day-to-day business, obtains an overview of his area of assignment, acts in the interests of the company and sees himself as a partner at management level.
His innovative and analytical skills contribute to developing strategies for reducing costs and optimizing the individual processes in the value chain. Especially in times of increasingly opening global markets, this factor is relevant for the company´s competitiveness. His high level of social competence also enables the Interim Supply Chain Manager to be quickly accepted as part of the team.
Technical affinity
In addition, his area of operation calls for a high technical affinity, as value and supply chains are increasingly moving in the direction of automation as a result of new technologies and digitalization. Furthermore, the topic of sustainability is expected to remain a major issue in the production and supply process in the coming years. In this context, continuous inventory control is one of the main daily tasks of the Interim Supply Chain Manager in order to be able to ensure the most efficient level of co-ordination of materials and thus reduce waste and emissions.
