Job Summary

You have the opportunity to make life better as Sr. Supply Planner. In this role, you will be responsible for managing relationships with Commercial Organizations, Business groups, manufacturing teams, and suppliers from an end-to-end supply chain perspective.

This involves maintaining correct master data in SAP to enable rule-based planning, managing phase-in/phase-out process execution from a planning perspective (PDLM), leading monthly S&OP supply reviews, defining, and reviewing mid- and long-term supply plans.

You will also plan, control, and maintain short-term master production schedules (MPS), balancing customer demands and inventory levels, making allocation proposals in case order books exceed capacity/available production slots or material availability, and proactively managing supply chains.

About the Role

The Supply Planning team is responsible for calculating optimal production plans for in-house/outsourced manufacturing, taking into account throughput times and logistic parameters, balancing supply and demand of markets to ensure finished products are available in DC/RDC w/h at the time of customer orders and that integral inventory levels are in line with business objectives.

To succeed in this role, you'll need a customer-first attitude and the following skills:

  • 5-8 years of relevant work experience in multiple areas of Supply Chain
  • Experience in managing diverse teams
  • Experience in influencing and driving change within Supply functions
