@carladanielafarley
Supply Chain Process and Project Manager at Saint Gobain Argentina improving logistics processes and customer service.
What I'm looking for
At Saint Gobain Argentina, I manage the continuity of the logistics transformation, seeking efficiencies across distribution, warehousing, capacity, raw material supply, planning and importing processes. I also supervise the implementation and rollout of IBP, WMS and TMS.
As LATAM Technical Purchasing Manager at Saint Gobain Argentina, I defined regional purchasing strategy for technical categories and sought cost reductions while maximizing the quality of materials and services. I also led sustainable packaging projects aimed at reducing the carbon footprint.
At Saint Gobain Argentina, I led purchasing automation, including an employee transport platform and purchasing catalogues, and worked on sustainable purchasing programs and CO2 savings. Earlier, as Transport Control Tower Manager, I supported logistics, warehouse and transport projects and developed KPIs.
My experience also includes import logistics and fulfillment at Walmart Argentina, raw-material planning and purchasing at Coca Cola de Argentina, and import advisory work. I’m looking to build on my purchasing and supply chain experience to improve processes and avoid costs.
