• Strong analytical and digital capabilities, including hands‑on experience with SAP, planning and forecasting systems, Power BI or SAP BI, and advanced Excel.
• Proven ability to lead projects and influence cross‑functional stakeholders in a matrix environment, combined with strong problem‑solving, communication, presentation, and facilitation skills.
