What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead supply, materials, and production planning in a manufacturing or project-based environment where I can improve material availability, inventory performance, capacity utilization, and on-time delivery.

I've led supply, materials, and production planning at Premier Composite Technologies in Dubai since 2014, coordinating 2,000+ SKUs and 30,000+ parts for UHPC/GRC project manufacturing. I build MPS, resource-loaded plans, material requirements, and S&OP plans across multiple production lines and 15 milling machines.

Across composite manufacturing, FMCG, apparel, and automotive components, I've delivered 95% OTIF, reduced dead stock by $400K, saved $70K annually in airfreight, and improved production efficiency by 20%. I use SAP, Dynamics AX, Oracle ERP, Power BI, Excel, MRP, BOM planning, and cross-functional coordination to protect material availability and project delivery.
