(Global) VP of Supply Chain Engineering & Operations (m/w/d)

Permanent employee, Full-time · Germany, Munich

Your daily workout

EGYM is looking for a VP of Supply Chain Engineering & Operations (f/m/d), who transforms our regional, mid-sized supply chain into a resilient global network that supports exponential growth across Europe, the Americas, and APAC - lean, data-driven, and sustainable. You act as a strategic partner to the Chief Hardware Officer, professionalizing our hardware operations through first-principles thinking and robust process design instead of management trends. Your core mission: mentor and develop our team to globalize, scale, and stabilize our supply chain by balancing efficient global sourcing with resilient regional networks and “pragmatic sustainability” (local where viable, sustainable global where it truly adds value). This role is designed for a seasoned industry leader at the peak of their career who wants to mentor the next generation of leadership, scale impact globally, and win without corporate bloat or rigid bureaucracy.

Supply Network Architecture: Your team will design, implement and continuously evolve a resilient, scalable global supply network, including right- shoring strategies and regional manufacturing and supplier hubs in key international markets
Local-for-Local Sourcing: Your team will develop sourcing frameworks to serve regional customers through local production, reducing carbon footprint and logistics volatility, guided by Total Landed Cost (TLC) and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) criteria
Capacity Management: Your team will identify bottlenecks and stress-test suppliers to ensure they can withstand high-velocity growth
Capacity Securing: Your team will secure long-term capacity by proactively negotiating dual-sourcing, strategic supplier partnerships, and innovative approaches such as shared capital investments or equipment co-financing aligned with demand forecasts.
Process Excellence: Your team will eliminate startup-era inefficiencies, document scalable workflows, and ensure compliance and quality without stifling agility
Leadership & Mentoring: You lead, coach, and develop senior leaders across Production and Procurement, actively transferring deep expertise in negotiation, risk management, and crisis leadership.
Succession & Talent Development: You build the capabilities of your teams to prepare them for future leadership and operational independence

Your fitness level

Hardware Operations Experience: You bring 20+ years in complex hardware operations, including electromechanical assembly (e.g. fitness, automotive, robotics, medical, white goods)
Engineering Foundation: You hold an engineering degree (Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial) or possess hands-on experience in solving engineering-type problems before your focus on Supply Chain and Hardware Operations
Global Expansion: You have successfully scaled a DACH-centric (or other western) supply chain to major international markets (Americas, APAC)
Crisis-Proven: You have a track record of solving logistics and supply disruptions through analytical first-principles reasoning rather than standard playbooks
Data-Driven Pragmatism: You prefer logically sound strategies over fad management trends (blind outsourcing, dogmatic Just-In-Time)
Builder & Mentor: You are driven by building sustainable systems and developing talent, not by headcount growth or budget size alone.

The equipment we provide

Responsibility & Impact: Work directly with our Chief Hardware Officer and their existing SCM leaders and actively shape the success of EGYM
Work-Life-Balance: Benefit from flexible working hours and 30 days of vacation per year
Fit & Healthy: Train for free with EGYM Wellpass in several thousand sports and health facilities across Germany and/or use our in-house gym with EGYM products
Mobility: Enjoy a monthly travel subsidy of 45€
Discounts: Get a variety of great discounted offers, from fashion to leisure, through our employee benefits portal
Bike Leasing: Stay active and use our leasing bike offer on your way to work or in your spare time
Subsidized Pension: Profit from our employer-subsidized pension
