Supply & Demand Planner: Power Tools

Drive planning excellence for Global Brand Leader. Shape inventory strategy. Enable smarter decisions.

We’re looking for a commercially minded Supply & Demand Planner who loves turning data into action to work with a global leader in Power Tools. This is a hands-on role where you’ll take the lead on demand planning while working closely across sales, marketing, operations and supply chain to keep things running smoothly and efficiently.

If you enjoy solving problems, spotting trends early, and influencing decisions with data — this role gives you the platform to do exactly that.

What You’ll Be Doing

Drive the Demand Plan

• Build and manage monthly forecasts across multiple states
• Bring together sales data, trends, promotions and market insights
• Adjust quickly as things change
• Continuously refine and improve forecast accuracy

Shape Supply & Inventory

• Align supply plans with demand, inventory targets and operational capacity
• Work closely with supply chain and operations to keep things on track
• Identify risks early and help solve them before they become problems
• Balance stock levels without compromising service

Partner Across the Business

• Work closely with Sales & Marketing to bring commercial plans to life
• Contribute to S&OP and planning forums
• Provide clear, practical insights that influence decisions

Turn Data into Insight

• Build and maintain dashboards and performance reports
• Use ERP systems and Excel to analyse trends and performance
• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce waste and save costs

What You Bring

• 5+ years’ experience in demand planning, forecasting or supply chain analytics
• Experience working in S&OP or integrated planning environments
• Strong systems capability (ERP/MRP — Iptor, AS400 or similar)
• Advanced Excel skills (you’re comfortable with Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP and working with large data sets)
• A sharp analytical mindset — you see the story behind the numbers
• Strong communication skills — you can influence without overcomplicating
• Ability to juggle priorities and stay focused in a fast-moving environment
• Experience with tools like Netstock or similar planning systems is a bonus.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You’ll have real ownership — not just reporting, but influencing outcomes
• High visibility role with strong cross-functional exposure
• Work in a collaborative, down-to-earth team that values ideas and initiative
• Opportunity to grow and build your planning career in a meaningful way

If you enjoy being at the centre of the action and want to play a key role in driving smarter planning decisions, this could be the move for you.
