The Enterprise Architect - Supply Chain is a key member of the Enterprise Architecture team, owning the architectural direction for the Supply Chain function at Coca-Cola HBC. This role spans the full breadth of the Supply Chain landscape, encompassing Demand Planning, Supply Planning, Manufacturing, Procurement, Inventory Management, Logistics, Distribution, Warehouse Operations, Customer Fulfillment, Transportation, Sustainability, and the Analytics & Reporting capabilities that support them.

These insights are translated into target architectures, integration blueprints, and transformation roadmaps that enable operational excellence and business growth. The ultimate goal of the Supply Chain architecture is to create a resilient, efficient, agile, and data-driven supply chain that delivers exceptional service, optimizes cost, enables sustainability objectives, and supports long-term business strategy. Working closely with senior stakeholders across Supply Chain, IT, and the business, the Enterprise Architect governs a best-of-breed technology landscape, ensuring that planning, manufacturing, logistics, procurement, and analytics solutions are architecturally coherent, properly integrated, and aligned to enterprise objectives. The Enterprise Architect proactively identifies opportunities for simplification, automation, visibility, and operational optimization, collaborating closely with platform architects and delivery teams to reduce fragmentation and technical debt across the Supply Chain ecosystem.
