Gynoveda - Head - Supply Chain Management

What You'll Own:

- Manufacturer & vendor coordination: Build strong, well-governed relationships with our manufacturers and raw-material vendors. Lock production plans and material timelines ahead of demand, and make sure no single manufacturer carries too much of our load.

- Faster delivery: Our raw-material-to-finished-goods cycle currently runs beyond 80 days. Your priority is to bring it down to under 60 days, so clinics are always stocked.

- Quality control: Lead our in-house QC team. Make sure every batch of raw material and finished goods meets specification, reduce quality deviations at source, and hold manufacturers accountable through proper checks and corrective actions.

- Stock & availability: Keep every clinic supplied. Own inventory planning, availability, accuracy, and days of stock across warehouse and clinics.

- Cost, COGS & working capital: Own how we calculate cost of goods, keep our stock and books reconciled, reduce raw-material wastage, and improve payment terms and cash flow with our vendors. (This role works closely with Finance.)

- Compliance: Work with our manufacturers to keep all product licenses and certifications (AYUSH, GMP, drug licenses and renewals) current and in order.

- Systems & knowledge: Own our supply-chain data, dashboards and reporting. Build a proper playbook so the function runs on process, not on individuals.

- Team leadership: Lead, grow and get the best out of the supply-chain team.

What We're Looking For:

- 9+ years of experience in supply chain, with time spent leading a function or a significant part of one.

- Background in Ayurveda, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, FMCG or a similar regulated, product-based business.

- Real experience working with external manufacturers and raw-material vendors - coordinating production, managing quality, and keeping things on time.

- Strong grip on the numbers: inventory, COGS, working capital, and the ability to work hand-in-hand with Finance.

- Understanding of quality control and compliance in a manufacturing setup.

- A builder's mindset - someone who fixes root causes, documents how things work, and doesn't rely on firefighting.

- Calm, clear and dependable under pressure, and able to bring the best out of a team.
