7 days ago

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Mars, Incorporated Full time

Job Description:

  • Be part of a transformation that connects every part of our supply chain—from planning to delivery—with the power of digital, data, and people.

    • 12-month maximum term contract opportunity, with hybrid working based in either Wodonga or Melbourne, with regular travel to Wodonga.

At Mars Petcare, we believe in creating a better world for pets—and the people who care for them. That's why we're transforming how our supply chain operates through Project Horizon, the ANZ Integrated Supply Chain Transformation Program.

This is more than a project—it's a bold step toward creating a connected, digital-first ecosystem, enabling us to respond with greater agility, efficiency, and resilience.

We're now seeking a Supply Chain and Logistics Functional Expert to act as a project manager, supporting the Logistics Lead in delivering the Logistics Acceleration Workstream within Project Horizon. You'll be at the forefront of redesigning how we manage warehousing, transport, and logistics — from strategy to execution.

What you'll do:

Supply Chain & Logistics Operational Excellence

  • Establish strong partnerships with internal and external stakeholders
  • Deliver on cost, service, and quality targets through collaboration and accountability
  • Provide analytical and functional logistics support to the broader Horizon team
  • Ensure vendor deliverables meet contract and performance expectations

Project Management & Governance

  • Support feasibility studies across end-to-end supply chain, warehousing, and transport
  • Ensure process, people, and tech design are fit-for-purpose
  • Track project milestones and report on progress and budget status
  • Coordinate cross-functional stakeholders (Supply, Commercial, Digital Technology, S&F, consultants, 3PLs)
  • Manage project financials, scope, risks, risk mitigation, and quality standards

Managing Change & Stakeholders

  • Lead future-state process design and conduct gap/impact analysis
  • Design and execute a robust change management program
  • Drive stakeholder alignment and training programs to ensure successful adoption
  • Enable smooth transitions from deployment to business-as-usual
What we're looking for:
  • Degree qualified in Supply Chain, Commerce, Engineering, IT, or Finance
  • Experience in logistics/supply chain operations
  • Proven project management experience in large, complex, or cross-segment projects
  • Strong process knowledge across warehousing, transport, and/or international logistics
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and influencing skills
  • Digital mindset – strong systems capability and learning agility
  • SAP functional knowledge – ideally Atlas/SAP ECC6 or S/4HANA
What can you expect from Mars?
  • Work with over 140,000 diverse and talented associates, guided by the Five Principles.
  • Join a purpose-driven company striving to build the world we want tomorrow, today.
  • Best-in-class learning and development support from day one, including access to Mars University.
  • An industry-competitive salary and benefits package, including a company bonus.

Be part of a team dedicated to Creating a Better World for Pets.

Applications close: Sunday, 7th September.

Internal Candidates: This role is graded as a T2 opportunity. Please discuss your application with your line manager prior to applying and obtain their endorsement.
