Navigating these different perspectives and communication styles is a central element of success in this position, so a strong level of intercultural competence and stakeholder empathy is essential. The role requires balanced tactical and strategic mindset. Corrugated boxes, under the Packaging Dept., is a highly dynamic and operationally driven category, requiring a high degree of proactiveness and responsiveness to a day to day supply topics. At the same time, the role must maintain a clear strategic direction: driving category strategies, cost optimization initiatives, and long term sourcing decisions.
