About Jennifer

Supply Chain & IBP leader for Manufacturing. I deliver at speed to embed IBP, fix planning processes, improve service and cut costs through clear KPIs and aligned decision making.

I help FMCG and manufacturing businesses fix planning, embed IBP and make better decisions—faster. I’m a senior supply chain & IBP leader with 15+ years’ experience delivering IBP adoption, demand, supply and inventory planning, KPI frameworks and cost reduction across complex, multisite environments.

Clients bring me in when planning is noisy, forecasts aren’t trusted, stock is high, service is at risk or decisions aren’t aligned. I design and embed practical IBP cycles, improve forecast accuracy, align supply, demand and finance, and give leadership clear KPIs they can actually use.

Typical engagements include IBP setup or reset, SAP IBP rollout and optimisation, demand and inventory planning improvement, KPI design and reporting, cost‑down initiatives and interim or fractional supply chain leadership. I’m pragmatic, commercially minded and focused on measurable results—not theory.
