- Take ownership of continuously evaluating existing supply chain processes — including order management, inbound logistics, inventory control, and returns — to identify inefficiencies and areas of opportunity, autonomously driving improvements from identification through to execution.
- Develop clear process documentation and embed new ways of working across relevant teams and systems, ensuring improvements are sustainable and scalable.
