? Click HERE What type of breed are we looking for? 🐕 You’re a collaborative, curious planner who enjoys turning data and changing market signals into decisions people can act on. You’re comfortable moving between detail and the bigger picture, influencing with care, and bringing Sales, Marketing and Supply Chain around a shared view of demand. You stay organised, make good decisions, and take action to solve problems. What will be in your bowl? 🥗 Working alongside your fellow Demand Planner, you’ll:
• Turn market signals into a clear demand plan. Take ownership of demand planning for your scope across operational, tactical and strategic horizons. Bring together historical sales, seasonality and insights from Sales, Marketing and Supply Chain to help ensure the right products are available in the right quantities for our customers.
• Make every forecast smarter. Improving forecast accuracy will be at the heart of your role. Challenge assumptions, investigate gaps between forecasts and actual demand, and fine-tune your approach to reduce bias and better anticipate demand variability.
• Bring everyone around one plan. Prepare and coordinate monthly demand reviews with Sales as part of our PEAK (S&OP/IBP) cycle, turning data and market insights into clear recommendations and an aligned demand plan.
• Challenge the numbers behind the big moments. Work closely with Sales to review promotional forecasts, test assumptions and build realistic plans for campaigns, product launches and seasonal peaks.
• Keep demand and supply in sync. Co-lead weekly demand and supply meetings with our Supply Planner to flag risks early, work through changes and keep plans connected as demand evolves.
• Find better ways to plan. Drive improvements in forecasting methods, planning tools and ways of working. Build clear, actionable reports that help teams understand performance and make better decisions. What skills & tricks should you bring? 🤹
