The Supply Chain Planning Sr Manager will play a crucial role in optimizing Amazon Brazil's transportation network, while integrating broader supply chain planning aspects. Key responsibilities include:

1. Develop and maintain advanced network optimization models to enhance transportation efficiency, reduce costs, and improve delivery speed across the supply chain.

2. Evaluate and refine existing optimization models, ensuring they accurately reflect current operational constraints, business objectives, and end-to-end supply chain impact.

3. Design and implement scalable processes for middle-mile (MM) lane planning, integrating with broader supply chain metrics such as cost, speed, and inventory placement.

4. Ensure alignment between operational planning (OP) cycles, guidance, and overall network strategy, including FC capacity, speed plans, and inventory positioning.

5. Engage with key stakeholders across finance, transportation, and network strategy teams to communicate short, mid, and long-term supply chain plans effectively.

6. Support central teams in developing comprehensive supply chain planning chapters for strategic documents and planning cycles.

7. Develop a deep understanding of the finance structure to validate numbers upfront and minimize rework.

8. Create and document overall processes, identify key stakeholders, map data flows, and determine required inputs and expected outputs across the supply chain network.

9. Lead initiatives to scale planning operations, reduce manual workload, and integrate benchmark tools and automation with the SC optimization team.

10. Continuously analyze supply chain data to identify trends, opportunities for improvement, and potential risks in the network.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in supply chain planning, a strong background in data analysis and modeling, and the ability to translate complex analytical insights into actionable strategies. They should possess excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively across multiple teams and levels of the organization.
