Our client, a multinational leader within food manufacturing, has an opportunity for an experienced Supply Planner to act in a key role in implementing the concurrent supply planning capability for one of the best known food brands in the UK.
As a Supply Planner, you will be responsible for supporting the balancing of demand and inventory information against capacity realities to determine net requirements and production quantities by location. You will liaise extensively with manufacturing operations in Spain and Spanish language skills are essential to your success in this role.
You will own both the short-term (weeks 5-13) operational planning and the long-term (months 4-36) strategic planning, working closely with cross-functional teams – including market teams, supply planners, plant operations, and OBMs – to make critical supply chain decisions. You'll leverage your analytical skills to run sophisticated scenarios, considering capacity, inventory targets, segmentation strategies, and volume plans across multiple locations, always striving for optimal cost-benefit outcomes.
This role demands a proactive and results-oriented individual who can translate complex data into actionable strategies. You will drive the execution of chosen supply plans, balancing competing constraints related to capacity, distribution, and volume.
You'll partner closely with the business and plants to understand their objectives and constraints, adapting to evolving network realities and footprint changes. Collaboration extends to the logistics team, where you'll contribute to the development of mid-to-long-term distribution strategies and support the creation of long-term production volume plans.
If you are a fluent Spanish speaker, who is open to some travel to Spain, have experience in a similar role and are looking for your next contract role then we’d love to hear from you.
