  • Collaborate with teams across Gateway Planning, Product, and BCO Management to support schedule feasibility and product development.

You should have:

  • Ability to multitask and manage a high volume of repetitive tasks in a fast-paced operations environment.
  • Good communication skills and the ability to proactively coordinate with multiple teams and stakeholders.
  • Proficiency with digital tools; prior experience with supply chain platforms is a plus.
