  • Perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and define countermeasures for service level failures.

  • Ensure accurate and up-to-date master data in planning systems.

  • Contribute to Phase‑In / Phase‑Out activities, minimizing write-offs and slow‑moving inventory.

  • Support new projects focused on improving operational efficiency and reducing costs.

Who You Are

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related field.

  • Minimum 3 years of experience in Supply Chain (planning, logistics or similar roles).

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven mindset.

  • Comfortable working in ambiguity and managing multiple priorities.

  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to switch between detail and big-picture views.

  • A proactive team player with a continuous improvement mindset.
