What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead E2E supply chain transformation—S&OP/IBP, network optimization, and SAP-driven inventory control—where I can scale resilient multi-hub distribution, coach teams, and deliver measurable margin, working-capital, and material continuity outcomes.

I’m a dynamic, results-driven Senior Supply Chain Transformation leader with over 20 years of global enterprise expertise (India, SE Asia, East Africa), specializing in end-to-end (E2E) network optimizations, S&OP orchestration, and complex digital system transformations. I bridge high-level corporate strategy with shop-floor execution to build planning architectures that teams can reliably run.

I’ve proven success scaling single-DC frameworks into resilient, multi-hub E2E distribution networks that protect gross margins, optimize working capital, and guarantee material continuity. In transformation work, I mobilize multi-functional teams, establish KPIs and succession plans, and translate operational realities into executable roadmaps supported by SAP S/4HANA and planning capabilities.

Most recently, as an SCM Consultant on a strategic transformation project, I spearheaded a multi-country supply chain diagnostic and redesigned procurement/RPM strategies within SAGE ERP—automating VMI principles to reduce raw material lead times by 15%. Previously, as Deputy Manager – Supply Chain & S&OP, I orchestrated the Automotive Coatings S&OP cycle, reduced ageing stock by 20% while sustaining 100% supply continuity, and delivered Power BI dashboards for real-time landed logistics and OTIF performance for major OEM accounts.
