      I started with Glanbia as VP of Supply Chain, a fast-paced organization with 250+ employees across six areas and five locations. Establishing and developing the supply chain team during my tenure has proven extremely productive, and we were able to deliver significant improvements across operations. Highlights include reducing working capital by $35M and 23 days in just nine months; this was achieved through better forecasting and driving a focus on DOH improvement and SLOB management. The transition to three new warehouses, and closing of a fourth, enabled more than $3M in savings each year. I also helped deliver two SAP implementations and designed and introduced a robust S&OP process that included organization-wide training and emphasized collaboration and strong inventory management.
