The Supply Chain Interview: Frank McKay

Frank McKay, Chief Supply Chain Officer at Jabil, details how he and his team are navigating tariffs, technology and turbulence Frank McKay has spent the best part of three decades at Jabil, the global manufacturing solutions provider serving approximately 450 of the world's leading brands. Now, as Chief Supply Chain Officer, he leads the company's procurement and supply chain organisation and services division across a truly global operation. Frank’s journey into the profession began in the 1990s when, fresh out of college, he accepted his first role as a buyer. It came at a pivotal moment in the industry's evolution as technology was just beginning to reshape the procurement landscape. "I got the procurement bug and decided this was an area that would continue to evolve," reflects Frank. “It was a time when technology was just starting to become part of the ecosystem of procurement and supply chain.” That technological revolution has only accelerated in the ensuing decades, transforming how companies manage complex global supply networks. Today, Frank oversees supply chain operations for a company generating approximately US$30bn in annual revenue and operating around 100 facilities across 30 countries. Jabil’s global footprint spans Asia, Europe and the Americas, positioning it as what Frank describes as "an engineering-led, supply chain-enabled company" that helps bring products to life for manufacturing partners. This scale and geographic diversity have become crucial advantages in an era of unprecedented supply chain disruption.
