2 weeks ago
The Position:
The Logistics Management Services Manager position is located in the Logistics Management Services (LMS) Team within Pillar 2 – Supply Operations in the Supply Chain Management Unit (SCMU). The position reports directly to the Head of Pillar 2 - Supply Operations Advisor. The Logistics Management Services Manager will work closely with other SCMU colleagues, the new integrated HQ division (name To Be Decided), the UNFPA Supplies Partnership, the Humanitarian Response Division, other HQ Business Units, the Regional Offices and the Country Offices and with a number of external partners.
The position plays a pivotal role in strategic oversight and comprehensive management of UNFPA’s logistics operations. This role involves the development and implementation of overarching strategies for Freight Services and Prepositioned Stock Management, encompassing UNFPA’s 119-country programmes and Third-Party Procurement Services (TPP), externally known as Supply Chain Solutions.
How you can make a difference:
UNFPA occupies a unique position in the sexual and reproductive health commodity ecosystem as a critical player in supply chain management, a leading public procurer of sexual and reproductive health commodities, a trusted partner to national governments, and one of the few organizations with the scale and partnerships necessary to build accountability for last mile delivery.
The UNFPA Supply Chain Management Unit (SCMU) is self-funded and was made operational in January 2022. It is tasked with ensuring that UNFPA is able to effectively and efficiently support the delivery of life-saving reproductive health products and other programme supplies to the end user when and where they are needed. To achieve this, it is important to strengthen the capacity of governments and implementing partners to ensure coordination, end-to-end visibility and accountability on all supply chain and logistics management related activities, in particular for programme supplies, across all UNFPA programmes
Job Purpose:
The Logistics Management Services Manager occupies a critical leadership role in overseeing UNFPA's comprehensive logistics operations, which include pre-positioned stock management, and freight services oversight. This role provides strategic oversight and management of the LMS Team and close coordination with Third Party Logistics (3PL) providers to ensure seamless inbound and outbound operations, effective storage solutions, and precise inventory management. The position plays a key role in guiding suppliers and 3PLs on order fulfilment, fostering strong communication with UNFPA Country Offices and TPP clients, and formulating strategies to enhance logistic capacities and avert critical supply shortages. Furthermore, this position entails substantial involvement in cross-organizational initiatives, thereby contributing significantly to the fortification of UNFPA’s overall logistics capability.
