  • Ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with SQL for data querying.
  • Knowledge of Lean, Six Sigma, or other continuous improvement methodologies.
  • Certification in APICS (CPIM/CSCP) or other supply chain credentials.
  • Experience in manufacturing, distribution, or e-commerce.

Key Competencies

  • Inventory Planning & Analysis
  • Data Analysis & Reporting
