  • Support cost efficiency and sustainability initiatives across the supply chain.
  • Performance & Continuous Improvement

  • Define and monitor KPIs such as service levels, OTIF, plant utilization, and inventory turns.
  • Drive continuous improvement in planning accuracy, supply reliability, and operational responsiveness.
  • Partner cross-functionally (operations, quality, finance, BD) to strengthen the end-to-end supply chain.
  • About You

  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Industrial Engineering, Dairy / Food Science, or related field.
  • 5–7+ years of experience in supply chain management, production planning, or logistics, ideally in dairy or food processing.

  • Proficiency with ERP and planning systems (SAP, Oracle, or equivalent).
  • Solid understanding of dairy supply dynamics and regulatory requirements.
  • Excellent communication, problem-solving, and negotiation skills.
  • Customer-first mindset : ensuring supply reliability in line with commercial promises.
