Senior Supply Chain Analyst Location

Remote - US - United States of America

CBRE believes a core strategy to accelerate the growth of its thriving Industrial & Logistics (I&L) business is to offer its clients in this sector sophisticated supply chain consulting services. Towards that end, we are looking for a Supply Chain Analytics professional to support our team and help execute client engagements that result in both growing team revenues as well as substantial growth in the I&L business.

You are an expert at getting the most out of Microsoft Excel, Access, Tableau and similar data tools. You enjoy working with large data sets and creating order out of seeming chaos. You want to work for a large, global company that is going places. But you are also excited by the prospect of working for a growing, entrepreneurial team within that company where your individual contributions can make a difference.

You understand the business implications of Big Data and understand the concept of taking data and turning it into information, knowledge and insights.

You report to a Manager on the Supply Chain Advisory (SCA) team who will serve as your guide and coach in terms of career and professional development. This Manager, in collaboration with you and other team members, will direct your day-to-day activities.

You work on many different work efforts simultaneously, so having a clear understanding of priorities and deadlines is important.

Work with the client to understand definitions of various data fields, units of measure, data period time frame, geographies, business units, product groups and more. You develop a list of follow-up questions for the client that will bring additional clarity to the data.

You clean, organize, and analyze client data, using tools and techniques you have acquired over the years. You identify and segregate bad data; you manipulate the data so that it can be imported into other applications; you document your work and assumptions for future consideration.

You receive exposure and experience from your more senior teammates on the use of sophisticated network and transportation modeling tools. These tools execute on your input data sets and form the basis for the team’s supply chain analyses.

With the assistance of your teammates, you determine the optimal manner and tools in which to present your analytical results. You contribute to project deliverables through the summarization of your work efforts into project outputs.

You support the SCA leadership team in the development and refinement of team infrastructure as we look to continuously improve the practice. Elements of this infrastructure include:

• Project Methodologies
• Thought Leadership
• Marketing Materials
• Management and Reporting Templates
• Case Studies
• Project Tools and Templates
• Education Materials for Internal and External Clients

• Bachelor's Degree preferred with 2-5 years of relevant experience. In lieu of a degree, a combination of experience and education will be considered.
• Demonstrated experience in contract administration, contract negotiation, quality assurance, and procurement management.
• Experience in working with and managing e-procurement and contracts management platforms.
• Ability to comprehend, analyze, interpret, and present complex data and/or documents.
• Understanding of existing procedures and standards to solve slightly complex problems.
• Ability to analyze possible solutions using technical experience to apply appropriate judgment and precedents.
• In-depth knowledge of Microsoft Office products. Examples include Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.
