September 17 2024 - 10:02AM
ON Partners, a pure-play retained executive search firm building
diverse C-level and board leadership teams, announced today that
Partner Heidi Hoffman has been honored with the “2024 Women in
Supply Chain” award, presented by Food Logistics and Supply &
Demand Chain Executive for the second consecutive year. This
prestigious award celebrates women driving innovation, mentorship,
and leadership across the supply chain sector.
“Heidi has been a trusted and transformative force
in the executive search industry, especially in elevating executive
talent within supply chain,” said Bryan Buck, Managing
Partner at ON Partners. “Her impact extends beyond the firm—she is
a true partner to the clients she serves and a respected voice in
the broader supply chain community. Her insights into the evolution
of women in supply chain roles are invaluable.”
This year, Heidi was named to the Trailblazers category, which
honors female leaders whose achievements and leadership continue to
pave the way for future females in logistics. At ON Partners, Heidi
spearheads the firm’s supply chain practice, recruiting senior
supply chain and operations executives for privately held,
investor-backed, and publicly traded companies. Her client
portfolio includes esteemed organizations like Thermo Fisher,
Independent Purchasing Cooperative, Salad and Go, Cencora, Traeger
Pellet Grills, The J.M. Smucker Company, La-Z-Boy, and Lucid
Motors.
“It’s truly an honor to be recognized by my peers in the
industry,” said Hoffman. “This award is a testament to women's
progress in the supply chain and beyond. We’ve broken many
barriers, but important work still needs to be done. I’m committed
to continuing my advocacy and support for women in this space,
encouraging their growth and success.”
In line with this commitment, ON Partners recently published its
2024 Women’s Report, which highlights positive trends in gender
equity across executive leadership. The report reveals that the
gender pay gap is narrowing year-over-year (YoY), with executive
women earning an average of $452k, compared to executive men’s
average of $461k. Additionally, when isolating director and vice
president (VP) roles—key pipelines for future C-suite
positions—women now lead in average total compensation.
“The ‘COVID period,’ when companies were recruiting remotely and
more accepting of remote executives, was a turning point for female
supply chain executives, particularly those in procurement,” added
Hoffman. “I have not seen a disparity between compensation packages
for male and female supply chain executives. Compensation levels
across the board have been rising as these roles become more
strategic and move into the C-suite.”
She further notes, “I’ve observed a growing number of female
entrepreneurs in the supply chain, identifying long-standing issues
and developing technology-driven solutions to address them.”
Recipients will be recognized this year at the Women in Supply
Chain Forum on November 12-13, 2024, in Atlanta. To view the
