Promoted internally from manufacturing engineer based on my knowledge of SQL and VBA and ability to generate reports with meaningful data in a clear, concise, and user-friendly way. Was given multiple reporting tasks for month-end closes, and improved the speed at which these existing reports ran by simplifying queries. I also generated new reports at the request of the Engineering Manager, Operations Manager, Finance Director, and General Manager. A production scheduling report that I wrote became the foundation for scheduling the entire site and provided visibility to the data to significantly reduce delinquent orders and improve the site's on-time-delivery (eventually to 6 consecutive months of 99+%).
