The Supply Leadership Development Program is a three-year rotational experience designed to build a strong, end-to-end understanding of how our Integrated Supply Chain enables our business and delivers our products to consumers every day. The program offers two distinct tracks, a Supply Chain Management (SCM) Track and a Technical Track, each designed to develop future leaders through meaningful, hands-on experiences across different parts of the supply chain.
All participants will begin their first rotation in a Manufacturing setting, where they will learn how our plants operate end to end, lead continuous improvement projects, and build a strong operational foundation. From there, participants will rotate through headquarters and field assignments, gaining exposure to functions such as Supply Planning, Procurement, Engineering, Customer Service & Logistics, and other parts of our Integrated Supply Chain organization. Each rotation is designed to build on the last, developing progressively broader leadership capabilities over the course of the program.
Throughout the program, participants will take on meaningful roles and projects tied to real business priorities, working alongside cross-functional teams to solve problems, improve processes, and drive results. This is not a shadowing experience. Participants own real work with real impact and senior leadership visibility from day one.
Development extends beyond each rotational assignment. Participants will have access to master classes, functional and leadership training, site visits, a layered mentorship structure (including an Executive Sponsor, Program Lead, Functional Manager, and Dedicated Mentor), networking opportunities, and exposure to leaders across the organization. Digital and AI fluency will be embedded as a core development thread throughout all three years of the program.
By the completion of the program, participants will have built a comprehensive understanding of our end-to-end, demand-driven supply chain, developed a diverse set of experiences across the organization, and established a strong foundation to continue growing their career and making an impact within our ISC organization.
Start Date for this position will be: July 26th, 2027

The ideal candidate is analytically curious, digitally fluent, and enterprise-minded.

  • Analytical Thinking: You make evidence-based decisions. You are comfortable with data, root cause analysis, and translating numbers into actionable insights.
  • Growth Mindset and Self-Awareness: You develop yourself first so you can develop others. You seek feedback, reflect on your experiences, and continuously improve.
  • Collaborative Leadership: You build teams, not empires. You multiply capability and bring out the best in those around you.
  • Resilience and Courage: You persist through ambiguity, make tough calls, and stand behind them. You sustain your energy and composure under pressure.
  • Enterprise Thinking: You see the whole system and optimize for the organization, not just your function. You are curious about how decisions in one area impact the entire supply chain.
  • Digital Fluency: You leverage technology to multiply impact. You do not fear disruption; you drive it. Comfort with AI, data tools, and emerging technologies is a must.
