This isn’t just analysis—it’s high-impact network modeling that directly influences customer experience and business performance.

Beyond the numbers, this role offers unmatched visibility and influence. You’ll collaborate with Sales, Product Divisions, Operations, and Inventory Management to connect commercial priorities with operational realities. Your insights will guide strategic decisions—from network footprint changes and inventory policies to long-term design choices that position the business for future growth. You’ll lead initiatives that deliver measurable cost savings and fill rate improvements, present findings to senior leaders, and turn data into decisions that stick. If you’re looking for a seat at the table where analytics, customer experience, and strategy come together, this is it.
