**About the job
So, What's the Story?**
Dr. Martens is entering a transformative phase in its global supply chain technology landscape. We are building a connected, intelligent digital ecosystem spanning planning, product lifecycle management, sourcing and costing, quality, and logistics, powered by platforms including Blue Yonder SCPO, FlexPLM, and Microsoft D365 Supply Chain Management, alongside a growing portfolio of specialist and custom applications.
We are looking for an accomplished Associate Technology Program Manager, based in our Bengaluru Global Technology Centre (GTC), to own technology intake and delivery for Global Supply Chain. This role is the connective tissue between multiple senior business stakeholders and the technology teams that build and support their systems, translating ambition into scoped, funded, governed, and delivered programmes of work.
Above all, this role puts culture at the centre of how work gets done. We are looking for someone who leads with respect, shows genuine care for the people and outcomes they are accountable for, and brings the persistence to follow every delivery risk through to resolution, not just to the next status report.
This role reports into the Technology Director - Global Supply Chain & Finance and works closely with the wider Global Technology team and senior supply chain business stakeholders across Materials, Sourcing, Global Logistics, Operations, End-to-End Planning, Product Quality, and Sustainability.
**The Gig
Role Purpose
As Associate Technology Program Manager, you will own the intake, prioritisation, and delivery of technology change across Global Supply Chain, acting as a single, trusted point of contact for business stakeholders while driving disciplined technology PMO practice, rigorous budget management, and software purchase order (PO) governance across your programme of work. You bring the persistence to chase down delivery risks until they are genuinely closed, not just logged.
**Key Stakeholder Partnerships
You will work across a wide senior stakeholder group to shape and deliver the technology intake pipeline, including heads of:
- Materials
- Sourcing
- Global Logistics
- Operations
- End-to-End Planning
- Product Quality
You will support technology leadership by building genuinely collaborative, respectful relationships with each of these stakeholders, understanding their priorities, translating them into technology intake, and being a dependable, honest voice on progress, cost, and risk.
