  • Collaborating with Atlantic Sales and Portfolio teams to optimize the global aluminium book by identifying and managing intercompany sales from the Pacific to Atlantic markets.
  • Proactively developing and driving value over volume initiatives to consistently deliver the highest value sales plan, with a strong focus on markets, value chain, end-user requirements, and conscious of the underlying production constraints.
  • Participating in the Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) process to recommend the best options for strategic and tactical challenges at the interface of sales, operations, logistics, and procurement, which includes:
  • Identifying problem statements, conducting trade-off analysis, and developing recommendations, solutions and conclusions to senior management in close collaboration with S&OP stakeholders.
  • Working closely with Metal Management to review metal positions, driving the optimization between market needs and logistics or production capacities, establishing a tactical plan to sell, and capturing near-term opportunities.
  • Prepare financial analyses and develop solutions for these demand and supply issues
  • Supporting Portfolio Manager to provide regular reports and analysis on performance against sales and marketing objectives as required.
