• Lead supply reviews with manufacturing sites and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Identify supply risks, constraints, and supply-demand imbalances, and develop scenarios and mitigation plans.
• Manage the supply-chain implications of lifecycle activities, including launches, transfers, process or product changes, geographic expansion, discontinuations, capacity changes, and network optimization.
• Assess the impact of lifecycle decisions on capacity, inventory, materials, production timing, site allocation, market supply, and service performance.
• Translate lifecycle-management strategy into integrated implementation plans with clear milestones, owners, dependencies, and escalation points.
• Build strong stakeholder relationships across manufacturing, quality, regulatory affairs, finance, commercial, procurement, logistics, and manufacturing sciences.
• Influence stakeholders and drive alignment across sites and functions where priorities and constraints differ.
• Balance patient supply, service, inventory, working capital, capacity utilization, and financial performance.
• Support portfolio and network decisions through analysis, scenarios, and recommendations.
• Ensure supply continuity during operational, portfolio, and manufacturing changes.

• Communicate complex supply-chain issues clearly to senior stakeholders and leadership teams.
