Demand jobs in Malaysia

Demand Planners play a key role in ensuring a robust demand plan is created for our regional teams to support the regional Sales & Operational Planning (S&OP) process. They bring together customer requirements and assumptions through close collaboration with local Sales teams.

Using our Global Planning Digital tool, Demand Planners lead the demand plan by using system-generated and cleansed statistical model data and layering in appropriate intelligence from Sales and Marketing. They provide detailed analysis of key data, insights and assumptions, and work closely with regional Sales teams to capture relevant adjustments that reflect our customers’ realistic unconstrained demand.
