A Snapshot of Your Day

Your day will start by reviewing and remedying any short-term logistical arisings reported from your stakeholder network. This could be anything from a quick phone call to a multi-functional meeting where you coordinate responses.

Next up is a weekly review of your performance dashboard which includes KPIs on budget, on-time delivery performance, transport damage, responsiveness, and risk mitigation. You initiate actions with logistics partners to continuously improve performance.

Your afternoon starts with a regular performance review with one of your key logistics suppliers. After that you head off to a new project steering committee where you present the logistics concept for the transportation of blades and vanes along the value stream. Finally, you ensure any highly critical shipments for the day are progressing to plan.

  • Management and controlling of both simple and complex international logistics projects as well as checking for compliance with specifications and services (contractual provisions, costs, prices, deadlines, etc.).
  • Personal attention to details of high priority logistics operations ensuring the service meets (or beats) requirements.
  • Creating and maintaining a dashboard of KPIs to measure the performance of the logistics operations
  • Continuous attention to problem solving and improvement initiatives to ensure world class logistics support as Siemens Energy Blades & Vanes expands its global operations.
  • Enforcing contractual clauses in case of shortfall in service levels.

What You Bring
