Purpose

The Senior Supply Planner leads mid- to long-range supply planning to achieve customer service, inventory, capacity, and cost objectives. Using SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) and SAP S/4HANA, this role develops feasible supply plans, identifies constraints and risks, evaluates scenarios, and drives cross-functional action through the S&OP/IBP process.

Primary Responsibilities

• Own the 3- to 18-month supply plan in SAP IBP, translating the consensus demand plan into feasible production, inventory, and capacity plans across assigned plants, co-manufacturers, and distribution locations.
• Use SAP IBP Supply, Response and Supply, and inventory planning capabilities to identify constraints, shortages, stock-outs, excess inventory, and service risks.
• Develop and compare supply scenarios for demand changes, capacity or material constraints, new opportunities, and operational disruptions; recommend options based on service, cost, inventory, and feasibility.
• Lead the monthly S&OP/IBP supply review, presenting capacity outlooks, key gaps, assumptions, risks, opportunities, and required decisions.
• Convert approved supply plans into executable requirements in SAP S/4HANA, including planned orders, production proposals, and material requirements, while maintaining consistency between systems.
• Partner with plant schedulers and manufacturing teams to develop achievable short-term production plans that balance inventory, capacity, sequencing, run rules, and changeovers.
• Manage supply exceptions and lead root-cause analysis for significant service failures, inventory deviations, and recurring planning issues, defining corrective actions and following through with owners.
