At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon.

Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible.

At the heart of Defining Possible is our commitment to missions.

At Northrop Grumman, you’ll have the resources, support, and team to do some of the best work of your career.
Global Supply Chain Strategic Sourcing works directly with Division & Functional Leadership to shape our long-term strategies to position our supply chain as a competitive advantage. No day will look the same. You will lead and own the long term development strategies of our suppliers’ positioning to meet our system-based Operations requirements.

- Lead a cross-sector team in an Agile environment, defining program increment objectives and working to mitigate solution risks. You will be responsible for providing guidance and knocking down roadblocks for the solution team.
- Collaborate with other functional teams and their solutions, identifying opportunities for integration and bolstering the digital thread. Identify key dependencies and address any identified risks.
