Senior Supply Planning Analyst with expertise in demand forecasting.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Senior Supply Planning Analyst with extensive experience in supply chain management, currently working at Dyson Inc. in Chicago. My role involves utilizing SAP IBP to monitor supply across a vast portfolio of SKUs, ensuring optimal inventory levels and addressing shortages proactively. I take pride in developing critical spares lists and collaborating cross-functionally to align supply chain strategies effectively.
Previously, I served as a Demand Planner at Ace Hardware, where I managed demand forecasting for a significant portion of the SKU portfolio. My analytical skills allowed me to enhance forecast accuracy through statistical modeling and data-driven decision-making. I have a proven track record of optimizing inventory management and improving demand signal quality, which has directly contributed to the success of product launches and overall supply chain efficiency.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management from Miami University, I am committed to continuous improvement and leveraging my skills to drive operational excellence. I thrive in dynamic environments and am passionate about fostering strong relationships across teams to achieve common goals.
