Supply Chain Executive resume
A supply chain resume is read for the part of the chain you owned and the numbers you moved. Planning, procurement, warehousing and logistics are adjacent but distinct, and the resume has to say which was yours.
- 01Which link you owned: demand planning, procurement, warehousing, transportation.
- 02Scale: SKUs managed, order volume, warehouse footprint, annual spend.
- 03Service and cost numbers — fill rate, OTIF, inventory turns, freight cost per unit.
- 04ERP fluency, named. SAP MM and Oracle SCM are searched for directly.

Put down only what is true and what you can be interviewed on. A term you cannot defend will win you the screening and then lose you the interview.
Managed supply chain operations and coordinated with vendors and transporters.
Planned 1,400 SKUs across four regional warehouses; lifted OTIF from 87% to 96% and took inventory turns from 5.2 to 7.1 while holding freight cost per unit flat.
- Describing the whole chain when you owned one link. It reads as inflation and unravels in the first interview.
- No SKU or volume figure. Scale is how a supply chain screener calibrates everything else on the page.
- Leaving the ERP off. It is often a literal keyword filter.

OTIF or fill rate for service, inventory turns for working capital, and cost per unit for efficiency. One from each tells a complete story.
Does industry experience transfer?
The mechanics transfer; the constraints do not. Pharma cold chain and FMCG distribution look similar on paper and are not, so name yours.
Is SAP essential?
Not essential, but it is the most-searched term in this function. If you have used it, name the module.
