- Use the ADKAR framework (Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, Reinforcement) to drive digital adoption and mindset alignment.
Requirements
- Experience: Minimum 8–10 years in Procurement/Supply Chain, ideally within FMCG or Premium Food Import.

- Tech Savvy: Proven experience with BI tools and supply chain optimisation software.
- Leadership: A "Leader who supports change"—someone who can drive tasks while mentoring the team.
