- Pressure test the network and set step-change targets (ie lead times cut in half)
- Translate capability needs into a 3 year roadmap with clear investment gates
Cost Optimization & Margin Improvement: - Own the COGS agenda and drive the cost-savings pipeline through to realized savings
- Partner with Business Development to model margin impact of launch mix, kits and channel shifts

- Manage geographic diversification and tariff and duty exposure
- Own supplier selection, scorecarding and review cadence with clear accountability

- Manage retailer fill rate, on-time delivery, routing compliance and chargeback exposure
Innovation & Launch Readiness:- Partner with PD to support an increasing innovation cadence
- Own the launch critical path and surface timing, cost or execution risk early
- Balance innovation ambition with feasibility and bring solutions, not just constraints
Execution & Cross-Functional Partnership: - Manage a Senior Coordinator, delegating execution to keep your time on strategy and negotiation
- Create the processes, systems and reporting the function needs where none exist today
