Job description

You are passionate about Supply Chain and want to start your career in Global Planning? Then you've come to the right place! We are looking for YOU as \"MRP Planning Specialist\" to join our Global Supply Chain Planning Team in Elsbethen/Salzburg.

In this role you'll take over the responsibility of the global material requirement planning (MRP) for components of our finished products using state-of-the-art tools. Moreover, you'll be responsible for short-term material availability in alignment with internal and external stakeholders.

All the responsibilities we’ll trust you with:

SHORT-TERM PLANNING

In this role you’ll ensure that the semi-finished goods production can keep up with the finished goods production, by determining the net requirements. You’ll also be responsible for short-term material availability in alignment with internal and external stakeholders by proposing order and replenishment quantities and timings.

DATA QUALITY

A smooth process requires a high data quality. Therefore, you’ll ensure the data quality for all planning related parameters in our Planning Tools and Master Data Systems. You’ll also track and monitor NPIs.

INVENTORY MONITORING SEMI-FINISHED PRODUCTS

An important part of this role is to plan and monitor replenishment of semi-finished products within the production network. In case of deviations plan vs. actual, you’ll take the corrective actions and align them with the involved parties. In addition you’ll continuously manage inventories to avoid waste and destructions of raw materials.

LONG-TERM PLANNING

Together with the team you’ll also be responsible to ensure a correct global long-term production/procurement planning and the dependent requirements for semi-finished goods and raw materials. Therefore, you’ll regularly monitor and check the automated processes and systems. The monitoring of overdue production orders and production requirement is also part of your role.

KPI MONITORING

You’ll also analyse data and prepare it for the monthly alignment meeting that takes place between internal stakeholders such as planning, production and procurement.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

To continuously develop our planning processes, you’ll apply your planning skills and system know-how (e.g. SAP MM/PP, SAP APO or master data systems such as SAP MDG-M) to support/lead supply chain projects.

Your areas of knowledge and expertise that matter most for this role:

• 3+ years of experience in supply chain planning, ideally including material requirements planning


• Degree in Business Administration, Operations Management or a related field, or an equivalent qualification with relevant professional experience


• Fluent English; German is a strong plus


• Experience with modern planning processes and systems, such as SAP IBP


• Strong analytical skills and a fact-based approach to decision-making


• Proactive, focused and solution-oriented, with strong collaboration and communication skills


• Motivated to work in a fast-paced, global environment

Due to legal reasons, we are obliged to disclose the minimum salary according to the collective agreement for this position, which is € 2362 gross per month. However, our attractive compensation package is based on market-oriented salaries and is therefore significantly above the stated minimum salary.

As an employer, we value diversity and support people in developing their potential and strengths, realizing their ideas and seizing opportunities. We believe passionately that employing a diverse workforce is central to our success. We welcome applications from all members of society irrespective of age, skin colour, religion, gender, sexual orientation or origin.
