Own stock accuracy, supplier performance and our carrier and 3PL relationships

Make sure every promotion, range launch and major purchase has a credible stock plan behind it, working with Commercial, Finance and Warehouse Operations

Lead the managers across stock, S&OP, carrier and 3PL, and set the standards they work to
