We’re looking for a Project Manager / Senior Project Manager to join our Siemens Advanta North America OA&D consulting practice. This role is built for a delivery leader who can run large, operations-heavy programs, earn trust on the plant floor and in the boardroom, and help grow the business through client relationships and commercial ownership (travel required; based in Atlanta, GA, Houston, TX or New York City, NY preferred).

You will make an impact by:

You will lead multi-site operational assessments and transformations across Manufacturing and Supply Chain, turning diagnostics into execution that improves OEE, throughput, quality, cost, and service.

Client Delivery / Program Leadership

• Lead large multi-manufacturing-site assessments (plant/network) and build transformation roadmaps with quantified benefits and sequencing.
• Run program governance/PMO: integrated master plan, workstream plans, RAID, dependency management, change control, exec steering cadence, and decision logs.
• Drive OEE improvement programs (availability, performance, quality): loss tree, bottleneck analysis, standard work, tiered meetings, daily management, sustainment.
• Lead operational workstreams tied to shop-floor performance: line balancing, changeover/SMED, flow, visual management, problem solving routines, training & adoption.
• Manage delivery of technology/automation enablement in operations: requirements, value cases, deployment plans for MES/SCADA/IIoT, performance dashboards, digital work instructions, data capture, and roadmap execution (partnering with technical SMEs).
• Own benefits tracking and impact realization, ensuring improvements show up in KPIs and financials—not just recommendations.

Supply Chain / Procurement Transformation

• Lead procurement uplift initiatives (sourcing effectiveness, category strategy execution, compliance, supplier performance, savings governance).
• Drive S&OP / IBP strategy and operating model: cadence, decision rights, planning roles, KPI system, demand/supply reconciliation, and executive forum design.
• Improve execution processes such as MRB / inventory disposition and cross-functional workflows impacting service and cash.

Commercial Ownership / Practice Building

• Build and expand relationships with client executives and site leadership; identify follow-on opportunities and help shape the pipeline.
• Contribute to proposal development and SOW creation (scope, staffing model, timeline, deliverables, assumptions, commercial story).
• Develop internal delivery playbooks (multi-site assessment toolkit, OEE/ops excellence templates, PMO standards) and coach teams to scale capability.
