Data-focused analyst leveraging SQL and Excel to drive smarter operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a business professional with 6+ years of experience using data to drive decisions in FMCG distribution and high-growth logistics. As a daily SQL and Excel user for ERP reporting, I analyze sales, inventory, and operational performance to turn large transactional datasets into actionable business insights.
In my current role as Director | OPAL Distributor Private Limited, I reconcile ERP data with SQL queries, build Excel reporting models (pivot tables, lookups, Power Query), and lead supplier and product-mix analysis to optimize working capital and reduce slow-moving stock. I’m now seeking an entry-level Data Analyst role to formalize and deepen my technical skills, as I continue building Python for Data Analysis and Power BI/Tableau dashboards.
