About Joseph Kurchock

I build clarity where others see chaos—turning complex portfolios and ambiguous ideas into simple plans, trusted cadences, and measurable results. Great businesses (and better lives for our pets) are built when planning, data, and stewardship meet. I’m driven to create systems that compound: clear goals, honest metrics, and teams that keep promises—to customers, to investors, and to each other. I am currently am in Resource Business Planning at Albemarle, helping senior leaders make faster, better decisions across the lithium resources portfolio. I standardize long-range and annual planning, run cross-functional rhythms, and translate BI into crisp, executive-ready insights. On nights and weekends, I’m the Founder of KiLoki Pet Wellness, bringing integrative pet care to more families through lab-driven insights and preventative plans. Curious operator. Calm in flux. I favor clear writing, simple operating mechanisms, and high-trust relationships. KiLoki keeps me close to customers and scrappy execution—constant discovery calls and investor-grade storytelling that turns ambiguity into motion.If you’re scaling an industrial or energy business—and want planning that actually sticks—or if you’re building at the edge of pet wellness, let’s connect. I’m always up for comparing notes on LRP/AOP design, KPI systems, scenario modeling, or pet wellness.
