Your leadership will drive strategic negotiations, ensure regulatory compliance, and empower your team to deliver cost savings and process excellence across all procurement activities.
MEANINGFUL WORK AND PERSONAL IMPACT
As the Manager of the GSE&SC team, you will lead and develop a specialized group responsible for supporting both direct and indirect procurement across hardware, software, and support services. You will drive strategic initiatives, enhance internal processes, and provide clear, data‑driven updates to GDIT Supply Chain leadership. Your leadership will directly influence how GDIT evaluates, negotiates, and procures critical goods and services that enable our end‑customers’ daily operations.
In this role, you will strengthen organizational readiness, reinforce sourcing discipline, and ensure alignment across the full procurement catalog. You will empower sourcing specialists to deliver cost savings, mitigate risk, and uphold compliance while partnering closely with stakeholders across Supply Chain, Technology, Finance, Legal, and program teams.
You will serve as the integrator for the GSE&SC function—ensuring processes, priorities, and execution remain coordinated as the organization scales. Your work will equip leadership with the insight needed to make informed decisions, accelerate high‑impact initiatives, and maintain strong supplier relationships in a rapidly evolving landscape.

Partner closely with senior leadership to evaluate and enhance supply chain methodologies and processes across the department
Lead and manage the catalog management process, including RFQs, Supplier Summits, and proposal/response analysis (e.g., cost, unit of measure, minimums, multiples). Collaborate with the SCM Data team and PMO to develop and validate optimal pricing models and catalog strategies
Manage the supplier base to ensure a balanced distribution of workload across the team and alignment with capacity, performance, and program needs
Oversee the development, accuracy, and timely submission of monthly and quarterly reports to program leadership, providing insightful analysis and recommendations as needed
Lead and facilitate quarterly performance reviews with top suppliers, assessing key performance indicators, identifying opportunities for improvement, and driving corrective actions and continuous improvement initiatives
Manage and monitor On-Time Delivery (OTD) performance through weekly reporting and follow-up, ensuring adherence to contractual and program delivery requirements
Effectively manage team workload and priorities to ensure all program service level agreements (SLAs) are consistently met or exceeded
Partner closely with GSE & SC Program Directors and DOS PMs to resolve sourcing blockers, accelerate delivery, support catalog and BPM processes, and ensure alignment between procurement actions and program operational needs
Cultivate and maintain professional, collaborative relationships with suppliers while clearly communicating and reinforcing company initiatives, values, and expectations
Oversee the assignment and management of all non-catalog requirements, ensuring work is distributed equitably across the team and aligned to capabilities, timelines, and program priorities
