  • Solid understanding of end-to-end demand and supply planning processes.
  • Familiarity with S&OP and supply chain planning concepts.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities, resolve ambiguity, and work under pressure.
