Turn data into impact. In this role, you'll be the link between commercial ambition and operational delivery – ensuring that life-saving medicines reach the patients who need them across the Oceania region.

- Managing demand and supply planning activities to maintain sufficient inventory that supports strategic business objectives and patient requirements

- Building and maintaining relationships with commercial business leaders, marketing teams, and external customers including hospitals to ensure seamless supply

- Managing inventory across multiple channels, including consignment inventory at designated hospitals, taking into account lead-times, customer demands and shelf life

- Ensuring all compliance activities and customer reporting are completed accurately and on time, in line with regulatory requirements

- Acting as the supply chain subject matter expert for your allocated portfolios, partnering with stakeholders across the business
