Aug 1, 2024

Rotated across FP&A, Supply Chain, Credit, Innovation, Neuroscience, and R&D at Symrise, a global manufacturer and supplier of flavors, fragrances, cosmetic ingredients, and functional raw materials. Gained deep exposure to the Asian flavor and fragrance markets while building skills in financial and data analysis, strategic planning, and consumer insights. Led competitive intelligence research on key regional players, creating a Tableau-based map that visualized Symrise and competitors’ factory footprints, product dispersion, and flavor profile differentiation by country. Supported credit risk and receivables analysis for key clients. Partnered with Neuroscience/AI teams to translate physiological reactions (via EEG and heart rate monitoring) in response to specific flavors and fragrances into actionable insights for product development.
