What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters growth, innovation, and collaboration.

I am a results-driven Business Planning Manager at Procter & Gamble, where I successfully launched centralized market planning across seven countries, significantly increasing forecast accuracy by 57% and sales by 26% within just six months. My strategic leadership in monthly planning has led to a remarkable reduction in non-performing inventory by 24%, saving the company $46 million. I have enabled 32 product launches in a single year, boosting market penetration by 20% and generating $1.8 million in revenue.

In my previous roles, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to enhance operational efficiency and drive digital transformation. As a Customer Supply Chain Assistant, I reduced customer complaints by 58% and improved order fulfillment rates from 86% to 93%. My internship experiences at Deloitte and Yelo Bank have further honed my skills in risk management and data analysis, allowing me to contribute effectively to cross-functional teams and streamline processes.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Economics and a passion for data-driven decision-making, I am committed to continuous learning and professional growth. I thrive in collaborative environments and am eager to leverage my skills to drive impactful results in my next role.
