In this position...
Join Ford’s Global Supply Chain Systems organization to drive adoption of new business systems across employees and suppliers. You’ll lead communications, training, and enablement that prepare users for change, accelerate adoption, and reduce support demand.

What Success Looks Like

Buyers and supply chain users confidently adopt new systems and processes.

Repeat support inquiries decrease through stronger enablement and self-service.

Leadership receives clear, timely visibility into readiness, adoption, risks, and support needs.

Digital, automation, or AI improvements simplify workflows and increase efficiency.

You'll have...

Purchasing or sourcing experience with knowledge of buyer workflows, sourcing processes, supplier engagement, and purchase order management.
