You enjoy solving complex problems, collaborating across organizational boundaries, and influencing stakeholders at all levels. You are self-driven, structured, and confident in planning your own activities to deliver high-quality results.
You bring experience from business systems product ownership (BPO), system development, and/or ERP-driven transformation initiatives. You understand integrations, data flows, and processes-and you enjoy working at the intersection of Operations, Supply Chain, and IT.
