Supply Chain C Class? - Supply Chain Focus - Discussion Forum - Supply Chain & Logistics Online Community

In your current organisation, do you have a C Class (Chief) manager level for Logistics or Supply Chain, or a Director? Have a go at the poll. We'll use Logistics and Supply Chain as the same title OK.

Supervisor :-)))

Probably dependant on size of organisation? Might be worth running a poll on, if you have a Class, what size business ae you?

Definately dependant on company size. Our Finance manager looks after Supply Chain !

Capie · 27 June 06, 23:31

Our MD looks after Supply Chain. But then we are not big either :-)

Jose · 01 August 06, 05:02

our customer service manager looks after it (amougst everything else///)

Survivor · 30 October 06, 08:46

I look after it.........and I deserve to be a C Class !

Would be very interesting to see a correlation with company size!

I wonder if we will ever see a Supply Chain person get to the top? I doubt it. It would be like a Logistics General becoming the Head of the Army

I agree that it depends on the size of the company (I'm in a large company and we have a VP for logistics) but it also depends on the company culture. I'm a 'regular' Manager because our company has a flat organisation. However, I know some of our competitors are much more heirarchical and the equivalent titles there are Director. I suspect this is more of a factor in large companies.
