What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, data-driven role in demand planning or category management where I can improve forecast accuracy, optimise inventory, lead supplier negotiations and drive margin growth in international retail or travel-retail environments.

I am a driven Senior Buyer and Demand Planner with more than 10 years' experience in merchandising, supply chain and category management. I have a record of negotiating supplier contracts that raised sales and profit, reversing significant category losses and implementing pricing strategies that improved front margin.

In my recent demand planning roles I manage multi-country forecasts, S&OP alignment and service-level targets while working with cross-functional and international teams. I use Excel, BI tools and ERP systems to drive forecasting accuracy, inventory optimisation and profitable category growth.
