• Facilitate cross-functional working sessions to define inventory policies, procedures, and accountability structures.
• Monitor inventory risks, system gaps, and operational constraints; escalate and resolve as needed.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on inventory accuracy, material flow, and supply chain efficiency.
• Support ERP or system-based inventory structure setup (e.g., item master, BOM alignment, transaction flows, reporting logic).
• Ensure sustained ownership of inventory performance, not just project delivery, but ongoing operational success
