ABOUT DAMLA ERDEN YILMAZ
I’m an operations and supply chain leader with global experience building resilient systems and solving structural problems, fast. Whether it’s inefficient production lines, fragile supply networks, or underperforming processes, I dive in to fix what’s broken and leave behind stronger, simpler systems.Over the last 6+ years, I’ve led transformation programs at P&G, GE Healthcare, and BD - from $10M+ global cost-savings initiatives to real-time labor modeling and end-to-end continuity blueprints. I’ve delivered impact in high-pressure and low-maturity environments across EMEA, APAC, and the U.S, working with everyone from frontline operators to the C-suite.My background spans Lean Manufacturing (IWS), Six Sigma, OpEx, crisis response, and digital process automation. My approach is pragmatic and execution-focused: grounded in lean, built cross-functionally, and scaled with discipline. I thrive where complexity needs structure and where change needs to stick.What sets me apart is my ability to move fast without cutting corners to diagnose the root, align people around a shared goal, and make change sustainable through systems, standards, and ownership.Now based in Chicago, I’m exploring new opportunities where I can lead critical initiatives, build alignment under pressure, and drive meaningful transformation in operations, supply chain, or manufacturing networks.
