Supply Planning Manager£35,000–£40,000Hybrid | Hertfordshire

If you’re the person who spots gaps in planning before they become problems — this is for you.

A growing product-led business needs someone to take control of supply, demand and inventory and bring structure to a fast-moving operation.

This isn’t a sit-back role — you’ll be the one making things happen, improving visibility and keeping stock flowing without overstocking or firefighting.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning end-to-end supply & demand planning across multiple markets and channels
• Keeping inventory lean but effective — balancing cost vs service
• Managing supplier and import planning across UK, Europe and Asia
• Supporting and strengthening S&OP processes
• Building reports, tools and dashboards (Excel / Power BI)
• Driving real improvements in forecast accuracy and planning structure

What they’re looking for

• Experience across supply planning, demand planning and inventory control
• Background in manufacturing or product-led environments
• Strong Excel / data skills (Power BI helpful)
• Experience working with international supply chains
• Someone proactive, hands-on and commercially aware

Why it’s worth a look

• You’ll own the planning function, not just maintain it
• Genuine opportunity to improve and shape how things are done
• High impact on cost, service and operational performance
