Senior Aviation Supply Supervisor at USS IWO JIMA, managing $285M+ in aviation parts while sustaining 98% material readiness.
What I'm looking for
At USS IWO JIMA (LHD 7), I lead 20 personnel managing more than $285M in aviation repair parts across 16,000 line items, sustaining 98% material readiness. I also reduced high-priority requisition wait time by 35% through streamlined processes.
I direct distribution center operations supporting 18 naval vessels with a 70-member joint service team. I maintain 100% inventory accuracy using R-Supply and NALCOMIS.
At Strike Fighter Wing Atlantic, NAS Oceana, I managed procurement and contract support for 15 F/A-18 squadrons supporting 341 aircraft. I coordinated with Boeing and Fleet Forces leadership to maintain fleet readiness, and conducted logistics training for 275 personnel.
Across additional aviation supply, procurement, and stock control roles, I managed inventories and budgets, supported distribution operations, and trained personnel in supply procedures. I’m seeking a challenging position where I can use my knowledge of logistics, supply management, procurement, inventory control, and warehousing.
