ABOUT CATIE HELMS BAKER
With over 17 years of experience leading enterprise-wide operations, I specialize in transforming complexity into clarity, aligning cross-functional leadership around high-value initiatives, and driving sustainable, tech-enabled growth. I operate at the intersection of strategy, execution, and operational excellence—elevating teams, systems, and outcomes.I led supply chain transformation efforts that introduced project management best practices, drove process innovation, and delivered meaningful improvements in compliance, design, and margin expansion. Prior to that, I spearheaded ERP and CRM overhauls, managed $28M+ in global vendor spend, and scaled product delivery systems to support double-digit revenue growth for top-tier brands like Sephora, Target, and Estée Lauder.Across every role, I build momentum around what matters most—whether that’s leading next-level transformation, unlocking operational capacity, or teaming with C-suite partners to turn strategic priorities into measurable impact. I bring a strong POV on how to align structure with scale, and how to use automation and integrated technology platforms to drive agility, visibility, and value across the enterprise.Industries:Technology | Consumer Goods | Supply Chain | Retail & Beauty | Manufacturing | Global Sourcing Executive Focus Areas:• Operational Transformation & Enterprise Scaling• Big Bet Initiative Activation• Cross-Functional Alignment & Leadership• ERP/CRM Implementations (NetSuite, Salesforce)• Tech-Driven Process Optimization & Automation• Sales & Revenue Operations• PMO & Portfolio Management• Margin Expansion & Cost-to-Serve Optimization• High-Performance Team Development• Vendor Management & Global Supply Chain What I’m known for:Building structure that scalesTurning strategy into executionDriving efficiency through automationPartnering cross-functionally to deliver results that matter
