Maria Grazia Longu.
Operations & Planning — Lean & Continuous Improvement — Dublin
I love making my life easier. I get paid to do the same for others.
Industrial engineer with nine-plus years in operations, trained in Italy and based in Dublin.
I started as a lean consultant, mapping factory floors and hunting waste. Then I moved into planning: supply for African markets at SC Johnson, then distribution, demand and revenue for Bulgari's jewelry business worldwide.
Today I run inventory for around ten of Europe's most iconic cultural sites. Different products, same instinct: map the process, find the waste, fix the flow.
