What I'm looking for

Fully remote role applying my supply chain, data and BI skills. Open to demand planning, data analysis, BI development, software implementation, reporting and customer success roles. I build systems as well as run processes. SQL, Python, Power BI and Snowflake are my core stack. UK citizen, no visa needed, flexible on time zones.

I’m a commercially sharp supply chain leader with 10 years of experience delivering demand planning, inventory optimisation, and S&OP expertise across FTSE retailers, global manufacturers, and fast-growth DTC brands. I’m at my best when I can connect domain decisions to the data and BI systems that power them.

At Aspen Pumps (Remote / UK), I’m the Head of Supply Planning and I’ve modernised both the planning function and its underlying data infrastructure. I independently delivered a full ERP-to-Snowflake data migration, building the OData extraction flow through raw, staging, and consumption layers with all transformation logic written in SQL and Python.

I also built a bespoke, production-grade supply chain planning and visualisation tool in Power BI from architecture to front end—semantic model, DAX measures library, M-code transformations, and executive dashboards. This replaced a fully manual spreadsheet process and supported a structured Sales and Operations Planning approach, including meeting cadences, KPI frameworks, and data-driven review packs.

Previously at Kingfisher Group, I led group-level S&OP transformation across 7 business units and 45 vendor relationships, achieving a 20% improvement in forecast accuracy. I designed and implemented real-time Power BI dashboards (tracking MAPE, inventory KPIs, and OTIF) and drove inventory optimisation through tighter stock positioning and streamlined replenishment—reducing inventory days while improving supplier performance standards.
