- Work closely with commercial teams to provide planning insight and contribute to the S&OP process.
- Monitor and report on key supply chain KPIs, including OTIF, stock availability and lead-time adherence.
- Build strong working relationships with suppliers and internal teams including Sales, Procurement, Manufacturing and Finance.
