You break complexity into actionable steps and communicate the “why,” “what,” and “how” with clarity. • You bring hands‑on experience in production or supply chain planning within manufacturing or fulfillment environments. You understand how daily decisions ripple across inventory, labor, capacity, and customer experience. • You’re fluent in Excel or Google Sheets — pivot tables, scenario modeling, and automation are second nature. • You’re comfortable working with ERP/MRP systems and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau, or similar). You know how to pull, clean, and interpret data to drive operational alignment. • You’re a clear communicator who can bridge operations and analytics audiences. You translate data into narratives that help partners understand risks, tradeoffs, and recommended actions. • You stay calm and solutions‑oriented during escalations.

You build trust, maintain strong working relationships, and ensure alignment across production, fulfillment, vendors, and cross‑functional teams. • You’re self‑directed and proactive — you identify the most important problems before being asked.
