Job Description
We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves and build a better world -- together. At Ford, we're all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?
The Ford Purchasing team adds critical value to the entire organization. You'll help us source the highest quality parts and services from around the globe while ensuring optimal cost and on-time delivery. You'll also contribute to establishing a robust supply chain so that we can continually produce the vehicles our customers want.
The automotive industry is amid significant disruption and change with an increasingly complex global supply chain, enormous amounts of capital investment towards electrification, and a digital transformation of the way large enterprises do business. The Ford Supply Chain Organization has recently created a Project Management Office (PMO) to drive sense of urgency and disciplined execution of key projects, identify interdependencies and connect within Supply Chain and enterprise-wide on broader initiatives, and foster learnings to enhance functional routines and impact.
We are hiring a Project Manager to help build and scale this new supply chain PMO. This individual will report to the PMO leader and manage a collection of projects either centrally led from the PMO office or by adjacent teams in supply chain or other departments.
In this position...
Agile Project Management: Lead multiple projects simultaneously from initiation to closure, coordinating resources and ensuring delivery within scope, schedule, and budget.
Business Acumen and Analytics Prowess: Help scope and prioritize projects that drive the most business value; define and track KPIs and metrics to measure success and drive adoption.
Comfort with Ambiguity: Gather, synthesize, and analysis unstructured information to identify patterns and trends; work on complex topics across supply chain categories and regions.
Forward Thinking, Strategic Mindset: Proactively identify obstacles and produce actionable solutions that drive lasting organizational behavior change.
Relationship Building: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure project success
Leadership Without Authority: Influence leaders and key decisionmakers in adjacent organizations
Storytelling: Create and deliver presentations to leaders on project status, obstacles, and outcomes
Embodiment of FordOS Behaviors
Excellence: Deliver It. Own It.
Focus: Do Only What Matters. Bias For Action.
Collaboration: Seek To Understand. Solve Together.
You'll have...
Even better, you may have...
You may not check every box, or your experience may look a little different from what we've outlined, but if you think you can bring value to Ford Motor Company, we encourage you to apply!
As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home? Will your career be a deep dive into what you love, or a series of new teams and new skills? Will you be a leader, a changemaker, a technical expert, a culture builder...or all of the above? No matter what you choose, we offer a work life that works for you, including:
Immediate medical, dental, and prescription drug coverage
Flexible family care, parental leave, new parent ramp-up programs, subsidized back-up child care and more
Vehicle discount program for employees and family members, and management leases
Tuition assistance
Established and active employee resource groups
Paid time off for individual and team community service
A generous schedule of paid holidays, including the week between Christmas and New Year's Day
Paid time off and the option to purchase additional vacation time.
