Working closely with the Head of Demand Management, you''ll drive operational excellence and supply chain efficiency through smart analytics and market insight.

Central to our Integrated Tactical Planning (ITP) process, you''ll lead monthly discussions with Sales and Supply Chain teams to refine forecasts, challenge assumptions, and evaluate the impact of demand drivers such as promotions, helping to optimise inventory, production planning, and working capital while ensuring customer satisfaction
