- Oversee budget management, financial reporting, and KPI tracking for the logistics function — preparing clear performance reports for management and actively supporting annual rate negotiations with 3PL providers and logistics partners
Supply Chain Digitalization & EDI Optimization
- Drive the establishment and continuous optimization of electronic data interchange (EDI) processes — working closely with customers and logistics partners to digitalize information flows, reduce manual interventions, and increase supply chain transparency and efficiency

- Drive the implementation of process improvements and interface optimisations — advancing both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance including the evolving CO₂ emissions reporting and sustainability requirements relevant to German and European logistics operations
- Manage the implementation of regulatory logistics requirements — ensuring CFP Brands’ logistics operations remain fully compliant with applicable German, EU, and customer-specific logistics, transport, and sustainability standards
