You will also be responsible for coordinating with suppliers, plants, and purchasing teams to identify potential cost savings projects through VSM optimization, freight efficiency, and process efficiency.

In addition, you will act as a single point of contact (SPOC) for suppliers supporting IMG plants and export from IMG regarding MMOG/Delivery Performance. You will provide training to suppliers to support launch and development, publish supplier news letters/CMMS BB updates/email reminders, and work with the team to identify and deliver at least 1 GB or BB project per team member.
