Lead cross-functional initiatives to redesign processes, such as implementing Just-in-Time (JIT) inventory practices for high-demand bakery items.
Recommend innovative solutions, such as automated tracking systems or vendor-managed inventory programs, to streamline operations and reduce manual errors.
Support continuous improvement efforts by analysing KPIs (e.g., order fulfillment times, waste reduction) and benchmarking against industry best practices.
Risk Assessment & Mitigation
Identify potential risks in the supply chain, such as supplier delays, ingredient shortages, or transportation disruptions, and develop proactive mitigation strategies.
Create contingency plans for critical scenarios (e.g., seasonal demand spikes, supplier failures) to ensure uninterrupted production of bakery goods.
Monitor external factors (e.g., market trends, weather impacts on agriculture) that could affect ingredient availability or costs, providing early warnings to stakeholders.
Collaborate with quality assurance teams to address risks related to food safety and compliance, ensuring all supply chain practices meet regulatory standards.
Implementation Support
Partner with operations, procurement, and logistics teams to execute approved process improvements, ensuring smooth adoption across departments.
Provide training and documentation to staff on new systems or workflows, fostering alignment and minimizing disruption during transitions.
