The Director of Supply Chain at Alcami is a pivotal leadership role accountable for driving results in a fast-paced, regulated manufacturing environment. This position oversees all aspects of supply chain execution - including warehousing, logistics, inventory control, production planning support, and procurement coordination - while leading performance tracking and continuous improvement initiatives across the organization.

The Director will have enterprise-wide responsibility for supply chain operations across all Alcami sites, ensuring standardized processes, consistent service levels, and scalable solutions that support both site-level execution and corporate growth objectives. This role requires close collaboration with key stakeholders in Project Management, Quality, Manufacturing, Micro Lab, Analytical Labs, Visual Inspection, Packaging, Business Development, Finance, and Commercial to ensure reliable material flow, inventory visibility, and high levels of client satisfaction. Reporting to the Head of Supply Chain, the Director will serve as a strategic and operational leader - driving alignment through Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP), milestone tracking, and demand-supply balancing. Success in this role demands strong cross-functional leadership and deep functional expertise in cGMP compliance, SAP S/4HANA (specifically MM, PP, and EWM), inventory management, procurement processes, specification generation, and vendor qualification.

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of leading multi-site supply chain operations within pharmaceutical, CDMO, or other regulated manufacturing environments. Experience in private equity-backed organizations, with an emphasis on automation, cost control, and scalable systems, is highly preferred. This is both a strategic and hands-on role, ideal for a supply chain leader who thrives in high-growth settings and is committed to building a best-in-class function that supports Alcami's mission to be the most efficient, reliable, and responsive CDMO partner for life-saving therapies.
