What I'm looking for

I want to contribute to scalable operations and supply chain strategies, owning inventory control and SLA-driven last‑mile delivery while improving dispatch efficiency, reducing shrink/RTO, and building strong execution through continuous improvement and team leadership.

I’m an operations professional who leads dark store and hub execution with a strong focus on inventory control, inbound/outbound logistics, and process optimization. In fast-paced environments, I use WMS/ERP tools to run audits, cycle counts, and real-time stock reconciliation to drive 99%+ inventory accuracy.

I bring hands-on expertise across dispatch performance, shrink reduction, and stock movement discipline (FIFO/FEFO and related models). I’ve improved operational workflows through lean practices—Gemba walks and Kaizen—while tightening delivery SLAs and reducing RTO.

I also combine operational rigor with people leadership, managing rider and manpower planning, onboarding, and QMS compliance through structured rosters, daily huddles, and performance coaching. I enjoy resolving issues via root-cause analysis and collaborating cross-functionally to sustain OTIF and service quality.
