What I'm looking for
I am a Supply Chain Planner with 11 years of experience in planning, inventory optimization, and logistics coordination, known for strong analytical skills and cross-functional collaboration.
At Kenvue (Johnson & Johnson) I drove UFR for promotional and ongoing SKUs achieving 99.26% UFR for Wound Care, 99.5% for Skin Health, and 99.9% for Vogue, led the Band-Aid Sustainable pack launch saving $1M annually, and acted as an SAP Power User ensuring transaction accuracy and process adherence.
I have partnered with manufacturing, 3PP co-packers, logistics and demand teams to reduce risk and costs—reducing display count by 20%, cutting SLOB by 10%, preventing $500K in expedited/shortage costs, and creating SOPs to streamline inventory reconciliation. I am seeking opportunities to leverage my expertise to drive operational excellence and strategic supply chain initiatives.
