  • Recruit, train, and nurture talent within the supply chain department.
  • Stay informed about industry trends and regulations in supply chain management.

Qualifications and Experience:

  • Degree or diploma in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • A minimum of 10 years experience in supply chain management, with at least 5 years in a managerial role. Experience in the Cosmetics, Pharmaceutical, Food, or FMCG industries is preferred, particularly with GMP exposure.
  • Proven forecasting experience in a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of implementing process improvements.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, and interpersonal abilities for building and maintaining stakeholder relationships.
