What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my skills in demand planning and inventory management while contributing to a dynamic team focused on operational excellence.

I am an experienced and resourceful professional with a strong work ethic and a commitment to operational efficiency. My career has been focused on demand planning and inventory management, where I have successfully managed the ordering of inventory and non-inventory items for LASCO Distributors Limited. My role involves using sales forecasts to ensure adequate stock levels, collaborating with category managers for special events, and preparing detailed reports on stock levels and order statuses.

Throughout my career, I have developed a keen ability to analyze market demands and prepare precosting analyses for potential new products. My experience includes liaising with customs brokers to ensure timely clearance of cargo, which has helped the company avoid unnecessary expenses. I pride myself on being a committed team player, always striving to deliver exceptional results and contribute to the overall success of my organization.
