As our Supply Planning Manager, you will play a key role in ensuring we have the right products, materials, and production capacity at the right time. You will lead end-to-end supply planning across production capacity, materials, and imported beer, translating demand into executable plans that support business growth and ensure uninterrupted supply.

Working closely with Brewing, Packaging, Engineering, Procurement, Logistics, and Global teams, you will proactively manage supply risks, optimize inventory and capacity, and drive continuous improvement across our planning processes.

• Lead end-to-end supply planning by translating demand forecasts into realistic 18-month rolling supply, capacity, material, and import plans.
• Manage short- to medium-term production planning across production lines, developing daily and weekly schedules that balance demand, capacity, resources, and operational requirements.
• Identify and mitigate supply risks by proactively managing capacity constraints, material availability, shortages, excess, ageing, and obsolete inventory.
• Optimize safety stock and inventory strategies to ensure supply continuity while minimizing waste and inventory write-offs.
• Develop supply planning scenarios for the S&OP process, assessing the impact on volume, capacity, service levels, risks, and costs to support business decisions.
• Drive planning data and systems excellence, ensuring master data and planning parameters are accurate and up to date, while maximizing the use of planning systems such as Core and FuturMaster.
• Coordinate material forecasting and reporting, partnering with Procurement and Global teams to ensure accurate and OTIF submissions through Anaplan.
• Drive continuous improvement to strengthen planning robustness, responsiveness, visibility, and supply chain performance, leveraging TPM methodologies and best practices.
• Build strong cross-functional partnerships to ensure seamless execution from planning through to production and supply.
