I currently manage any defective parts we deem to be supplier fault, involving the liaising with suppliers, returning of parts and obtaining of credit notes. Expediting purchase orders is an additional part of my role. I also create routecards for one of our product lines.

Supply Chain is always an essential part of any manufacturing business but I am excited to see how technological advancements improve the efficiency of supply chains, including the use of autonomous mobile robots.

I most relate to Technology as this greatly effects the efficiency of supply chains and thus the production of our own businesses.

Being challenged and happy in my career inspires me most, and working in different areas has helped me realize the levels of each quality I would obtain.
