Maintain data accuracy, validate inputs, troubleshoot reporting issues, and partner with Technology teams when system or data integrity concerns arise. Work independently to manage priorities, meet deadlines, and deliver high-quality analytical support in a fast-paced supply chain environment. Communicate complex data, assumptions, and recommendations in a clear, concise, and actionable manner to cross-functional partners and leadership. Stay current on supply chain analytics, workforce planning, forecasting, reporting tools, and industry best practices to continuously strengthen analytical capabilities.
