Who are we?

Helping you have healthy hair has been our mane goal since 2007.

So, you can take on whatever tangles life throws your way.

• Highlight any risks/opportunities vs the financial plan in the monthly S&OP process

• Input into the product lifecycle management process and review ABC classifications

• Build strong relationships with the Sales team, gaining in-depth knowledge of the product catalogue and customer needs

• Support the automation of customer forecasting and drive efficiency improvements through data analysis

• Lead mini-projects focused on automating sales forecasting and improving data-driven decision-making

• Collaborate with team members to challenge and provide insights that enhance sales and operational processes
