Description:

Senior Director Of Strategic Sourcing

Honeywell is seeking a Senior Director of Strategic Sourcing to lead the Installation Center of Excellence as part of the Projects Center of Excellence. This is a transformation role, not business as usual, with a mandate to modernize how Honeywell sources, contracts, and partners with installation and subcontracting suppliers globally.

The role owns the enterprise subcontracting strategy across Honeywell businesses, representing approximately $500M in annual external spend, and is accountable for driving cost, speed, and competitiveness through standardized processes, fit-for-purpose contracting, should-costing, value engineering, and AI-enabled automation.

This position requires a leader who can define strategy and execute it alongside the team, with a hands-on leadership style and the ability to personally engage in analysis, executive materials, and critical discussions. The role operates in a highly matrixed environment and relies on influence, credibility, and delivery to achieve results.

Responsibilities
  • Lead Honeywell's global installation and subcontracting sourcing strategy across businesses
  • Drive transformation from fragmented, manual practices to standardized, scalable operating models
  • Act as senior change leader to ensure enterprise adoption and value realization
  • Own pre and postaward savings delivery in partnership with business teams
  • Drive RFQ cycletime reduction, bid quality improvement, margin expansion and winrate enablement
  • Establish and track performance metrics across savings, speed, and preferred supplier utilization
  • Deploy standardized value engineering and postmortem processes for major projects
  • Partner with Legal to implement fit-for-purpose subcontracting and risk frameworks
  • Support and lead escalation of complex, high-impact subcontracting negotiations
  • Lead deployment of should-costing, RFQ tools, and AI-enabled process automation
  • Serve as key stakeholder and decision preparer for sourcing technology investments
  • Ensure tools materially simplify day-to-day execution and drive measurable outcomes
  • Lead a global, matrixed team of regional Installation COE leaders
  • Influence senior business, project, and functional stakeholders without direct authority
  • Represent Honeywell with strategic subcontractor partners globally
Qualifications

Must Have

  • Significant experience in Strategic Sourcing
  • Proven track record leading large-scale transformations in complex, matrixed organizations
  • Strong problem-solving capabilities and comfort operating in ambiguity
  • Hands-on leadership style with the ability to personally drive analysis and executive materials
  • Experience influencing senior stakeholders across multiple functions and regions

Strongly Preferred

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering or supply chain management
  • MBA in Supply Chain Management
  • Experience with projects, EPC, installation, or subcontracting sourcing
  • Exposure to construction or trade subcontracting environments
  • Experience with should-cost modeling and contract management
  • Familiarity with digital sourcing tools and AI-enabled process automation
  • Global experience working across diverse regional markets

Additional Information
