Location: Munich (Oberhaching), Germany

As EnOcean is growing rapidly, the VP Operations & Supply Chain will help us lift our operations and supply chain to the next level. This leadership role will have a strategic impact on how we architect our business going forward. However, we also need someone who is willing to roll up the sleeves to make this strategic impact come to fruition.

Our operations team has been able to increase our production by 25% while in the midst of unprecedented supply shortages. They are incredibly strong on the day-to-day operations. EnOcean utilizes three manufacturing partners of which the largest two are based in Europe and one in China. We have strategic relationships with most Internet of Things chip vendors around the world.
