Job Title: Supply Chain Risk Program Coordinator
Location: Sunnyvale, CA (On-Site)
Job Description:
This contractor will work directly alongside Apple's CMM Global Supply Manager to co-drive two parallel workstreams: driving structured raw material risk mitigation best practices with suppliers and engaging suppliers to reduce raw material risk exposure. This is a hands-on, externally-facing role that sits at the intersection of supply chain risk, supplier management, and program operations.
Preferred Background:
* 3+ years of experience in supply chain, procurement, commodity management, or a related operations function.
* Experience in a supplier-facing or externally-engaging role; comfort running meetings and driving follow-through independently.
* Familiarity with critical minerals, raw materials, or global commodity markets is a plus but strong curiosity and willingness to learn is equally valued.
* Bachelor's degree in supply chain, business, international relations, economics, or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
Key Responsibilities:
* Lead structured supplier conversations independently: preparing for, facilitating, and following up on mitigation-focused discussions with suppliers to drive commitment to action.
* Develop and deliver personalized feedback to supplier respondents, translating self- assessment data into clear, actionable improvement recommendations.
* Build and maintain program tracking infrastructure in a digital database
* Coordinate the expansion of the program to new suppliers
* Monitor geopolitical developments and commodity market signals relevant to critical minerals and materials, flagging events that may affect supplier risk levels or sourcing concentration.
* Support cross-functional escalations to Engineering and Procurement where material qualification, substitution, or dual-source approval is required.
* Contribute to executive-level reporting: synthesizing program status, risk reduction progress, and supplier response data into clear, decision-ready summaries.
