The posting, as DoorDash wrote it

About the Team

The DoorDash Global Sourcing team operates across three brands: DoorDash, Deliveroo, and Wolt, and more than 40 markets, as part of the broader Global Procurement, Sourcing, Travel and Supply Chain organization. Its mandate is to build a world class global sourcing capability that captures enterprise synergies through aligned category strategies and delivers measurable value creation beyond savings, including business enablement, risk reduction, and stronger commercial outcomes.

Global Sourcing is organized around three category towers: Technology, Corporate Services, and Marketing. The team focuses on increasing category maturity through disciplined strategy, governance, and supplier management, while harnessing suppliers as a source of innovation, resilience, and competitive advantage. The team is in the middle of a multiyear transformation of its operating model, tooling, and ways of working.

About the Role

Reporting to the Head of Global Strategic Sourcing, this role is a strategic and operational partner and a force multiplier across strategy, execution, and communication. You will steward the long term category wave plan, run transformation program management and the operating rhythm, carry the sourcing narrative, lead high visibility special projects, and help keep the team healthy and engaged. The role amplifies the team and enables the Category Leads. This is a role for a sharp, low ego operator who can move fluidly between shaping thinking and getting the details right, and who leads through influence rather than authority.

What You Will Do

• Track progress against the plan, surface risks, dependencies, and resourcing conflicts early, and frame the tradeoff decisions needed to keep waves on track.
• Connect the wave plan to value creation targets beyond savings, including business enablement, risk reduction, and category maturity.

Carry the Sourcing narrative and communications

• Craft and steward the narrative for the Global Sourcing team, turning strategy and results into clear, compelling stories for leadership, stakeholders, and the wider team.
• Draft executive communications, leadership updates, business review materials, and all hands content for review and approval.
• Ensure consistent messaging across brands and stakeholder groups, tailoring communications for individual contributors, executives, and, where relevant, external partners.
• Own communications for transformatio
