At Turosi Food Solutions Group, I lead and develop a three-person commercial team and own monthly closing, quarterly forecasting, and annual budgeting. I established the commercial governance process for new product launches, using scenario modelling and risk assessment to support management sign-off.

I built Python-based forecasting and optimisation tools, including a MILP-based allocation model, and created the weekly trading pack that drives $15K/month in procurement savings. Pricing and promotional ROI reviews across major QSR and retail accounts delivered approximately $3.1M in annualised profit.

At JBS Australia (Pork Division), I improved forecasting accuracy by 40% and developed an inventory forecasting model that saved $240K annually. Earlier, at Motion Asia Pacific, I built KPI scorecards and financial models to support management investment and pricing decisions.
