• Apply statistical forecasting, predictive analytics, sensitivity analysis and scenario modelling to improve forecast accuracy, reduce bias and optimise inventory positions.
• Partner with Finance to align demand forecasts and inventory strategies with revenue projections, quarterly budgets and long-term financial plans.
• Manage demand planning for new product introductions and product lifecycle changes, including phase-outs and cannibalisation, to help minimise excess and obsolete inventory.
• Act as a functional subject matter expert for demand planning operations, process improvements and system-enabled planning capabilities.

• Support planning design across statistical forecasting, demand segmentation, IBP/S&OP integration, consensus planning, exception management, workflows and master data.
• Strengthen standard planning processes, governance and tool adoption across APAC demand planning.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in supply chain, Business Administration, Operations or a related field.
• 7+ years in Demand Planning, IBP or planning systems, including directly driving monthly demand planning cycles and demand reviews.
• Solid knowledge of statistical forecasting, forecast accuracy and bias, segmentation, lifecycle planning and demand analytics.
• Hands-on capability with demand planning tools and system-enabled planning processes.
• Proven ability to translate data, assumptions and market signals into practical planning decisions.
• Background partnering across Commercial, Finance, Supply Planning, Customer Service and Operations to develop aligned demand plans.
• Stakeholder engagement and analytical problem-solving capabilities, with the ability to communicate complex planning insights clearly.

Nice to Have

• Exposure to o9, Kinaxis, Blue Yonder, SAP IBP or similar planning platforms.
• Familiarity with global planning processes or transformation environments.

• Constructive Challenge: Question assumptions thoughtfully while bringing stakeholders together around a realistic demand plan.
• Clarity: Turn complex insights into simple, meaningful messages for both business and technical audiences.
