**About the Role**

The Assistant Supply Planning Manager role is responsible for devising a production plan and managing the execution of the plan to support business needs. A Supply Planner acts as a key connector between Demand Planning and Manufacturing. It is the responsibility of the Planner to understand the business and to build a responsive network that can react to the volatility of the market while managing inventory levels, non-finished good material availability, and waste implications.

As part of the Supply Planning Team, you will need to drive initiatives to meet team goals, ensure the continuous improvement of processes and outcomes, optimize the delivery of service, inventory and production planning and work collaboratively on new product development plans. Frequent and effective interaction with demand planning, factories, suppliers, procurement and logistics teams is essential.

In addition, you will prepare capacity-constrained supply plans using planning tools; organize and coordinate meetings with 3PMs to build a “partner to win” relationship and identify future customer service risks and work with the cross-functional teams to quantify and reduce the impact on customers.

**Who You Are & What You’ll Do**

In times when stock supply is constrained, you'll act as a key connector with the Marketing, Trade Marketing, alerting the local internal teams, such as Customer Service, about restricted supply situations and recovery plans. You are responsible for ensuring the SKU level demand signal created is produced and supplied on time in full by the Unilever supply network.

You'll manage your SKU's entire life cycle, setting up new products and managing the exit of SKUs from the Unilever range. You'll be expected to proactively identify and mitigate future risks to the business and drive this change agenda that will help us get ahead of a crisis.
