Jan 7, 2021

ON Partners consultants completed high-level supply chain and operations executive placements for a wide range of organizations in 2020, including Ball Corporation, Creation Technologies, Estée Lauder, Frontdoor, Inc. and PlayPower, Inc.

Today’s supply chain leaders sit at the nexus of corporate operations. COOs must manage a complex global network of relationships and quickly adopt new technologies and innovations. The broadening scope and higher impact of supply chain management requires leaders who are strategic, profit-oriented, champions of change, and technically and operationally superior. ON Partners is at the forefront in identifying supply chain leaders who are best equipped to drive meaningful transformation.

Notes ON’s Heidi Hoffman, “Diversifying the supply base and building new capabilities will be themes for the future, and executives who demonstrate flexibility and agility across different functions and regions will be in high demand.”
