Job Purpose and Impact

The Senior Supply and Inventory Planner plays a critical role within our Manufacturing and Supply Chain organization, serving as a key connector between demand, capacity, and execution. This role is responsible for converting the long-term demand plan into a long-term monthly supply plan designed to support high service levels and customer demand, while balancing cost, capacity, and operational constraints.
