• Support risk assessment for key supply chain disruptions and develop financially grounded mitigation plans, including scenario and sensitivity analyses.
• Prepare and deliver clear, executive‑ready reports and presentations summarizing financial performance, key drivers, and recommendations for leadership.

• Proficiency with Excel (advanced functions, modeling), and experience with ERP, BI, or planning tools (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Power BI, Tableau) is strongly preferred
• Solid understanding of supply chain concepts, including procurement, production planning, inventory management, logistics, and cost drivers
