About Mutares
Mutares is a listed European-based private equity holding company specializing in restructuring medium-sized companies and spin-offs.

The Mutares portfolio companies operate across a wide range of industries around the world; mainly with Automotive and Mobility, Engineering and Technology, Goods and Services and Retail and Food.
Since opening their first office in Munich in 2008, Mutares has become a global player in the carve-outs and restructurings market. They now employ 27,000 professionals across their portfolio companies. And their team of 140 internal operational specialists manage the entire value creation process from thirteen European offices, including an office in central Amsterdam. Mutares is expanding their business even further across Europe and globally, with plans to add locations in China and the US, too.

Vacancy: Supply Chain Manager
The Supply Chain Manager will play a vital role to successfully optimize Mutares’ portfolio companies. Working on-site at portfolio companies across The Netherlands and Europe, they will lead the supply chain stream, engage with key stakeholders and align project workstreams, and provide strategic direction and leadership to increase value and drive sustainable, long-term growth.
Focused on optimizing critical business needs and continuous improvement, the Supply Chain Manager always thinks cross-functionally. They deep dive in order to understand specific details of each organization, gain strategic insights and apply them to implement strategic value creation plans. The Manager is the bridge that connects each project. They enable important synergies between portfolio companies, identify benchmarks, and deploy best practices to increase efficiency and maximize ROI.
The Supply Chain Manager reports to the Practice Head of Supply Chain, Christophe Paris, as well as to the Chief Restructuring Officer at each portfolio company. Their responsibilities will vary, depending on each client and their unique business needs, including defining and implementing turnaround concepts, and monitoring action plans. They also provide training workshops for relevant Supply Chain related departments, including Service Level, Inventory, Logistics Costs, Process, Organization, Systems, and Tools.
Flexible and entrepreneurial, this role comfortably operates outside of their own functional supply chain field. Working quickly and autonomously, they easily embed themselves within a portfolio company, and take on any interim role to allow the reorganization to run smoothly. Business and people savvy, the Supply Chain Manager builds trust and fosters successful relationships. They carefully navigate social environments when working on-site at portfolio companies and apply the right amount of empathy along with strong leadership, offering the team clear direction, transparency, and motivation.
Mutares offers a dynamic international working environment and fosters exceptional cooperation and teamwork. The Supply Chain Manager will join their ambitious and diverse team of skilled operational professionals, and work up to four days a week on-site at portfolio companies and one day per week in the Amsterdam office. This is a exciting opportunity for an entrepreneurial team leader with a background in consulting and supply chain management.
