WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

You’ll be part of Nike’s Materials Manufacturing team, a critical engine inside the unified Material Supply Chain organization. The role reports to the Senior Manager, Materials Manufacturing, based in Beaverton, Oregon, and works closely with teammates at the Nike World Headquarters and global Materials Manufacturing partners in Asia. You’ll collaborate daily with Materials Planning, Costing, Sourcing, Product Development, Apparel Supply Chain, and Sustainability teams, while serving as the primary connection to external material vendors.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Nike is looking for a driven, detail-oriented materials leader who knows how to turn complexity into clarity. This person thrives in fast-moving, cross-functional environments and brings a strong balance of analytical rigor and relationship-building skills.

Comfort working with external vendors is essential, as this role owns day-to-day manufacturing performance from development through delivery. A curiosity for continuous improvement, sustainability, and new ways of working— including the use of data, reporting tools, and emerging technologies—will set this candidate apart. This is a role for someone who takes ownership, solves problems decisively, and helps elevate how Nike brings materials to life at scale.
