WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

You work closely with team members across multiple functions, depending on the research in question. You will need to navigate our ecosystem, which entails both business as well as technology and capability teams.

Furthermore, you will work together with other analysts that help and support you to maximize the learning experience in a dynamic team atmosphere. The managers will inspire, coach, and guide you to ensure your personal development.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for a Supply Chain Intelligence Analyst to join our team at Nike ELC. Our analysts are self-starters that have a drive to optimize end-to-end flows and look beyond the silos of a function. A team player that can also thrive in self-steering teams. We value a mindset that balances between the consumer needs and an efficient supply chain.

You are triggered to redefine the status quo by applying a critical mindset. You are driven to conduct thorough research and well-founded recommendations, to ensure Nike’s supply chain is a true example of right time, right place at the right cost. You like to take ownership and accountability on delivering challenging yet realistic project roadmaps.

You engage others in stages of the process from ideation to delivery. Your success and speed of delivery are powered by your strong influencing and storytelling skills. As we operate in a large, fast-paced organization, you are comfortable with ambiguity.

•             Basic understanding of Supply chain and Operations Research methods

•             Proven experience in Data Analysis & Reporting (Tableau, Snowflake, SQL, Excel, and/or similar tools)

•             Strong verbal and written communication in English

•             Experience with supply chain processes

•             Basic experience with scripting languages e.g., Python

•             Systems thinking mindset

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

Being part of the Supply Chain Intelligence team, you will support Nike to operate its supply chain as efficient as possible. The analysts in our team play a pivotal role in understanding what drives our business processes and how they impact each other.

This enables us to make recommendations through both strategic and tactical exploration. You will be able to provide strategic guidance to optimize product flow balancing speed, cost and service. You also play an elementary role in driving continuous incremental improvements in our supply chain processes.

Lastly, you are accountable for optimizing and designing the supply chain network to meet business needs through network modeling studies.

A typical day/week will see you being involved in one or more supply chain optimization workstreams ranging from gap exploration to assessing multiple optimization scenarios. You will be in a unique position looking at what drives Nike supply chain forward instead of optimizing for 1 particular function or process.

In summary, your responsibilities will include to:

•             Research our supply chain flows

•             Map out future network models

•             Identify gaps preventing the optimal flow of goods

•             Valuate the impact of current processes

•             Bring business knowledge and insights together to formulate advise

•             Apply a variety of research methodologies

•             Clearly articulate substantiated impact of scenarios to varied audiences
