  • Compliance & Quality Assurance:
    • Assess and enhance process controls to mitigate risks and ensure compliance with global standards.

    • Resolve complex design challenges, balancing global standardization with practical usability for manufacturing operations.
  • Stakeholder Collaboration & Change Management:
    • Partner with cross-functional teams, including Supply Chain Planners, Manufacturing Site Teams, and IT, to gather requirements and ensure alignment.
    • Lead User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for manufacturing-specific scenarios, such as subcontracting and consignment.
    • Act as a key driver for the Direct Material stream, ensuring timely execution, risk escalation, and stakeholder readiness.
    • Provide training and support to operational teams to facilitate smooth process adoption
