* Lead the end-to-end demand, supply, and S&OP planning process for 50% of EMEA volume
* Develop and deliver a 3-year strategic roadmap to support business expansion
* Coach and develop a high-performing team of 6–9 direct reports
* Achieve near-100% stock availability while reducing waste and cost
* Collaborate closely with commercial teams, NPD, bottlers, co-packers, and suppliers
* Leverage systems such as SAP IBP, Power BI, and Excel to drive data-led planning
What You’ll Bring:
* 5+ years’ experience in senior planning roles within FMCG, across multiple markets
* 3+ years in team leadership with a strong track record in performance management
* Hands-on knowledge of SAP IBP, S&OP processes, and planning systems
* Strong commercial acumen and a drive to continuously improve systems and outcomes
* A collaborative, solutions-focused mindset and confidence in working cross-functionally
Why Join Monster?
* Be part of a global brand that’s edgy, fast-paced, and performance-driven
* Shape operations for a business that moved over 138 million cases in EMEA last year
* Enjoy a role that blends strategic influence with real-time business impact
If you’re ready to bleed green, energise teams, and drive planning excellence – we’d love to hear from you.
