Job Title: Program Management - Program Manager III


Job Description:
The Role:
As the contingent Operations Program Manager, you will manage day-to-day execution for 3P Retail & Telco repair and maintenance and supply fulfillment/warehouse operations across North America. You will oversee external warehouse and service partners, track performance, improve processes, and ensure materials, documentation, and service execution meet business needs. This role is best suited for a hands-on operations program manager with experience in retail operations, vendor or 3PL management, repair and maintenance, warehouse execution, and continuous improvement. You will partner with internal teams and external agencies to manage execution, resolve escalations, maintain compliance, and scale operational improvements.

Requirements:
- You are a hands-on operations leader with experience in retail repair and maintenance, warehouse execution, material flow, vendor or warehouse agency management, KPI ownership, and continuous improvement.
- You use a structured, data-driven approach to solve problems, improve processes, and maintain system integrity, inventory accuracy, and compliance while working effectively with internal teams and external partners.
- We need an FTE-caliber resource who can take full ownership with minimal oversight. Specifically, we need someone with direct experience managing repair & maintenance programs and/or supply fulfillment agencies from a Retail Operations perspective.
- Candidates with only warehousing, supply chain, or logistics backgrounds will not be a fit. The right person must understand the full retail lifecycle—from visual merchandising through 3PL installations—and how R&M integrates across that ecosystem.
