Supply Chain Manager

Magnera's purpose is to better the world with new possibilities made real. For more than 160 years, the originating companies have delivered the material solutions their partners need to thrive. Through economic upheaval, global pandemics and changing end-user needs, they have consistently found ways to solve problems and exceed expectations. By bringing together these legacy companies, the distinct scale and comprehensive portfolio of products will bring customers more materials and choices. With a combined legacy of resilience, Magnera will build personal partnerships that withstand an ever-changing world.

Our Benson facility has recently expanded, adding a converting operation. This growth means we are stretching beyond our core competency of manufacturing rolls of fabric to also shipping cases of finished goods. With this transition comes new warehousing and inventory challenges that that require stronger systems and structure. Adding to the challenge, Magnera is preparing for a major ERP transition from JD Edwards to SAP, making this a pivotal time for a strong supply chain leader to step in and drive change.
