Shawn Huang is an operations and finance leader with 18+ years of experience in finance, supply chain and commercial operations, currently serving as Operation Director for B. Braun in Shanghai. He combines hands-on accounting and IFRS reporting with strategic P&L control, demand and supply planning, and LEAN-driven cost improvements across China. Shawn leads cross-functional programs from finance due diligence for strategic investments to distributor and tender management, and has implemented sales data analytics tied to Salesforce to drive rep performance.
