Your role will involve carrying out thorough analysis considering all cost and qualitative factors to determine the optimal option that ensures the lowest total cost, efficient working capital, and appropriate lead times. You will be required to analyze data to identify areas within the supply chain design that can be enhanced to improve efficiency. Additionally, you will liaise, coordinate, and lead (if necessary) in the development of projects aimed at enhancing the supply chain design. This will involve conducting TCO analysis through modeling, scenario building exercises, and simulations to evaluate supply chain decisions, identifying opportunities for cost, inventory, and lead time reductions, and recommending the best alternatives.

Moreover, you should demonstrate superior interpersonal skills, effective communication abilities across various organizational levels, and proven experience as a Supply Chain Analyst or in a similar role focused on optimizing the supply chain. An analytical mindset, business acumen, problem-solving capabilities, attention to detail, and excellent presentation skills are key attributes for success in this position. Proficiency in MS Office applications such as Excel and PowerPoint, as well as working knowledge of ERP systems like Oracle, SAP, or Mfg. Pro, is required. Preferred qualifications include exposure to remote team collaboration and a Supply Chain Management certification (CPIM, CLTD, or equivalent).
