   • Support consolidation and reuse of procurement data across regions
3. Project Coordination & Cross‑functional Collaboration
   • Act as a commercial interface with internal teams including warehouse operations, administration, finance, and other stakeholders
   • Track and follow up on commercial issues during project execution and support issue closure
   • Assist with priority management and milestone reminders under multiple parallel projects
