ABOUT THE POSITION

As a Supply Chain Planner, you will be responsible for ensuring that planning and follow-up are carried out efficiently across the entire supply chain. The goal is to meet customer needs and achieve the company's objectives in both the short and long term. The role entails overall responsibility for securing delivery capability and acting as an escalation point when challenges arise with customers or suppliers. The workweek is a mix of structure and flexibility. Mornings are often dedicated to fixed check-ins, checklists, and order management on-site in production. Afternoons vary and focus on deviation management, contract reconciliations, and long-term planning.
