What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a forward-thinking company that values data-driven decision-making and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated Supply Chain Analyst with over 5 years of experience in logistics, e-commerce, and retail operations. My expertise lies in data-driven process optimization and end-to-end supply chain management. I leverage tools like Excel, Google Sheets, and Power BI to track KPIs, analyze performance, and enhance operational efficiency. Currently, I am pursuing the Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst Certificate to further sharpen my data visualization and business intelligence skills.

In my recent role as a Logistics Analyst at Growrk, I successfully tracked order fulfillment and KPIs across the EMEA and Australia regions, utilizing custom-built dashboards to drive operational visibility. My previous experience as a Supply Chain Specialist at Leroy Merlin involved leading performance monitoring and operational planning, where I developed dynamic dashboards that supported real-time decision-making. My analytical skills have consistently contributed to improving service-level agreements and optimizing inventory management processes.
