Pompano Beach, FL jobs
Our client, a fast-growing, entrepreneurial aerospace business (currently ~$70M in revenue, on a trajectory to exceed $100M) is seeking an experienced executive to lead and transform its Supply Chain & Materials organization. This is a newly aligned leadership role with broad authority and real impact.
This is not a corporate caretaker role. It is a builder, transformer, and hands-on leadership opportunity for someone who thrives in scaling environments.
Scope of Responsibility
This executive will own end-to-end supply chain and materials performance, including:
Supplier Development & Strategic Sourcing
Procurement
Material & Production Planning
Inventory Management
Warehousing & Logistics
All of these functions will report directly into this role, creating a single integrated operating system for flow, cost, and service.
The Challenge
The company is intentionally realigning leadership to create a modern, high-performing supply chain. You will be asked to:
Create a clear vision for how supply chain and materials should operate at scale
Lead a transformation, not just manage the status quo
Build and reshape the team using both existing talent and selective external hiring
Operate hands-on when needed, solving problems, mentoring leaders, and setting the tone through action

This role is ideal for someone who:
Has led supply chain, materials, or operations in complex, fast-growing manufacturing environments

Is comfortable wearing multiple hats and working close to the work
Prefers building and fixing over navigating layers of bureaucracy
Has likely grown up in mid-size or PE-backed environments rather than mega-corporates
This is not a role for someone who needs large corporate infrastructure to operate effectively.
