  • Lead regular process reviews and continuous improvement cycles.
  • Implement root cause analysis frameworks for chronic planning or purchasing issues.

6. Systems, Tools, and Data Enablement
  • Collaborate with IT/ERP teams to improve planning and procurement system functionality (ERP, APS, MRP, supplier portals).
  • Champion digital transformation and data-driven decision-making.
  • Ensure consistent global use of tools and templates across all sites.

7. Change Management and Training
  • Drive organizational adoption of new processes and tools through structured change management.
  • Develop training materials and conduct workshops for global teams (planners, buyers, schedulers, and materials managers).
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement and operational discipline.

Qualifications:
