About the Role

We design and build retail store fixtures for leading brands - custom, project-based work that requires precise coordination between project management, design, engineering, overseas manufacturing, and import logistics to deliver on time and on spec. We are looking for an experienced Project Manager II to manage import and global manufacturing projects.

You will work as a direct peer to our Project Managers, serving as the supplier-facing counterpart to the customer-facing PM. Where the PM owns the customer relationship and project commitment, you own how the project gets sourced, manufactured, imported, and delivered through our global supply chain.

This role requires someone who thinks like a project manager but lives in the world of global sourcing - someone who can manage supplier relationships, translate project scope to vendors, suppliers, and logistics partners, navigate international logistics, and keep complex import projects on track across the full project lifecycle.

What You'll Own

Sourcing & Supplier Management

• Lead sourcing strategy and supplier selection for imported projects
• Evaluate supplier capability, capacity, and fit for each project
• Build and maintain strong factory and supplier relationships overseas
• Ensure clear communication and understanding of project scope

Import & Logistics Execution

• Work closely with the Global Sourcing & Import Specialist on compliance, HTS codes, and import logistics
• Manage and mitigate import disruption risks

Project & Production Coordination

• Own outsourced production milestones from project kickoff through delivery
• Confirm suppliers understand engineering requirements; manage implementation of changes
• Monitor production schedules at overseas factories and intervene when at risk
• Coordinate with Project Managers, Engineering, Production, and Buyers to ensure supply chain readiness

Risk & Performance Management

• Identify and manage supplier capability risks, quality issues, and supply chain disruptions
• Protect project margins through effective sourcing and proactive risk mitigation
• Measure success through supplier performance, on-time delivery, material readiness, and sourcing effectiveness

The Questions You'll Ask

Day to day, you're the person asking:

• Who is the best supplier for this project - and can they execute?
• Do they fully understand the requirements and scope?
• Are materials being produced on schedule?
• Have engineering changes been communicated and implemented?
• What risks could impact delivery - and how do we get ahead of them?

Who You'll Work With

You'll collaborate closely with teams across the business:

Internal: Project Management, Engineering, Production

Sourcing & Procurement: Buyers, Global Sourcing & Import Specialist

External: Overseas Factories, Logistics & Fulfillment Partners

What Success Looks Like

In this role, you're measured by:

• Supplier performance and execution quality
• On-time delivery of outsourced projects and materials
• Sourcing effectiveness - right supplier, right cost, right capability
• Project margin protection through proactive risk management
• Reduction of supply chain disruptions on import projects
