  • Conduct thorough analyses of total direct material expenditures to uncover opportunities for enhancements and strategic initiatives.
  • Propose solutions to business challenges and identify areas for improvement, presenting your insights to senior leadership.

  • Highly organized with a strategic mindset, capable of prioritizing multiple projects and effectively managing change.
  • In-depth knowledge of assigned commodities, relevant technologies, and key cost drivers.
