About the Role

IndigoSlate, a Zensar Company, is seeking an experienced Commodity & Supply Chain Manager to help global clients build and run disciplined commodity-management capabilities across critical categories. You will work with procurement, planning, engineering, construction, finance, and suppliers to turn market intelligence into practical decisions and measurable outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Help clients manage critical commodities and long-lead equipment from market insight through commercial commitment and delivery.
  • Build and strengthen supplier assurance, align demand with secured capacity, and embed governance and operating rhythms.
  • Build and maintain market, price, capacity, allocation, and lead-time views across categories such as copper, aluminum, steel, transformers, switchgear, generators, cooling equipment, semiconductors, and technology hardware.
  • Develop should-cost models, cost-driver analyses, buy-versus-hedge scenarios, and reusable sourcing plays before commercial commitments are made.
  • Translate market and supplier signals into clear hedge, lock, source, qualification, and escalation recommendations.
  • Use licensed market sources, supplier engagement, and client purchase-order and quotation history to create defensible decision baselines.
  • Use predictive analytics and machine-learning techniques for demand forecasting, price and lead-time scenarios, supplier-risk sensing, anomaly detection, and early-warning indicators.
  • Design AI-supported decision workflows with transparent assumptions, source traceability, confidence thresholds, and human approval for material sourcing and commercial decisions.
  • Assess supplier capability, capacity, allocation position, quality, and performance.
  • Support supplier qualification, competitive sourcing, negotiation strategy, capacity commitments, factory acceptance, and delivery adherence.
  • Build supplier scorecards and structured relationship-management practices for critical vendors.
  • Help clients secure priority and capacity ahead of the build schedules that depend on them.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience in commodity management, supplier relationship, strategic sourcing, supply-chain planning, procurement transformation, operations consulting, or a related field.
  • Deep capability in should-cost modeling, cost-driver analysis, supplier economics, negotiation strategy, competitive sourcing, and buy-versus-hedge decisions.
  • Ability to combine incomplete market, quotation, supplier, and transaction data into defensible recommendations with explicit assumptions, confidence, and risk.
  • Demonstrated experience assessing supplier capability, capacity, allocation position, quality, and performance.
  • Experience leading or supporting qualification, scorecards, competitive events, commercial negotiations, capacity commitments, factory acceptance, and delivery-performance management.
  • Proven ability to identify and mitigate single-source, geographic, tariff, logistics, specification, quality, and qualification exposure.
  • Ability to develop dual-source, alternate-supplier, buffer, and contingency strategies.
  • Ability to connect forecasts, build waves, order timing, supplier capacity, and schedule-critical milestones.
  • Demonstrated success advising cross-functional and executive stakeholders in global, client-facing environments.
  • Ability to facilitate decisions, clarify roles and escalation paths, translate complex analysis into executive choices, establish operating rhythms and measures, create playbooks, train users, and transfer a sustainable capability to client teams.
  • Experience shaping proposals, statements of work, estimates, and RFP responses.
  • Experience translating scope into workplans, milestones, stakeholder inputs, and measurable outcomes.
  • Experience maintaining delivery quality, commercial discipline, risk escalation, and client trust.
  • Working knowledge of SQL, Python, and Excel modeling.
  • Working knowledge of SAP Ariba, Coupa, or SAP SCM 09 and Google collaboration tools.
  • Strong facilitation, communication, storytelling, analytical, negotiation, and relationship-management skills.
  • Experience with long-lead, capital-intensive, or schedule-critical categories is required.
