Experience

Assistant Supply Chain Performance Planner

SOCOMORE · Chemical industry · 5 plants · 300+ SKUs · 12 M€

October 2024 – October 2025

Multi-site environment with strong demand volatility and complex coordination between production, inventory and distribution requiring a consolidated real-time view.

  • Improved forecast accuracy from 85% to 93% (+8 pts) through ABC/XYZ segmentation, advanced statistical models and integration of promotional signals.
  • Reduced stock-outs from 15% to 7% (53% decrease) by dynamically optimising safety stocks and implementing early warning alerts.
  • Generated 59,000 € in yearly savings via Lean projects, transport optimisation and CO₂ reduction.
  • Prevented 8 critical stock-outs, protecting 45,000 € of sales.

S&OP achievements

  • Led 12 complete S&OP cycles: demand consolidation, sales history analysis, capacity simulations, production and inventory trade-offs.
  • Designed 5 Power BI executive dashboards connected to SAP and Sage X3 (OTIF, logistics costs, stock rotation, stock-out alerts).
  • Facilitated demand review meetings with sales and supply teams, adjusting forecasts with field feedback.

Continuous improvement

  • Reduced CO₂ emissions by 12% through transport plan optimisation and reduction of empty trips.
  • Increased truck loading rate from 68% to 85% (+17 pts) via flow analysis and delivery frequency adjustments.
  • Cut order preparation time by 9% by reorganising picking flows and storage zones.

Supply Chain Analyst (Final-year internship)

SOCOMORE · Reporting digitalisation

May 2024 – October 2024

Manual reporting taking 6 hours per week, fragmented data between SAP S/4HANA and Sage X3 and no consolidated real-time performance view.

  • Built 10 Power BI dashboards connected to SAP S/4HANA and Sage X3 through automated ETL flows.
  • Designed a star schema data model (orders, stock, deliveries vs products, customers, time, sites) and advanced Power Query transformations.
  • Developed complex DAX measures (time intelligence, rolling averages, anomaly detection, dynamic KPIs).
  • Supported 6 S&OP cycles: MAPE tracking by product family, risk identification and commercial forecast consolidation.

Results: reporting time reduced by 70% (6 hours to 1 hour 30 per week), elimination of manual input errors and adoption by more than 15 users (management, supply planning, sales, finance).

UNDP · Macroeconomic risk project

July 2023 – October 2023

Quantitative modelling of macroeconomic risks (inflation, exchange rate volatility, logistics disruptions) on humanitarian supply chains in developing countries.

  • Built composite risk indicators and impact scenarios (stress tests, Monte Carlo simulations).
  • Produced 2 strategic notes with quantified results and operational recommendations.

Performance Monitoring Analyst

GRETA / Chamber of Commerce

February 2022 – January 2023
