  • Partner with sales, operations, supply chain, and finance stakeholders to ensure alignment and accuracy of forecasts.
  • Identify and analyze demand variability and risks, providing recommendations to mitigate supply chain disruptions.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance forecasting accuracy, tools, and processes.
  • Communicate forecast results and insights clearly to senior leadership and cross‑functional teams.
  • Support scenario planning and demand efforts to optimize inventory and production planning.

Required Skills / Qualifications / Certifications / Tech Stack

Essential

  • Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, Business, Finance, or related field; advanced degree preferred.
  • 7+ years of experience in demand planning, forecasting, or supply chain management, with at least 3 years in a leadership role managing global teams.
  • Strong expertise in demand forecasting methodologies, S&OP processes, and financial forecasting.
  • Experience working with Salesforce data and integrating CRM insights into demand planning.
  • Proficiency with forecasting and planning tools (e.g., Excel, SAP APO, Kinaxis, or similar).
  • Excellent analytical, problem‑solving, and communication skills.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively across global, cross‑functional teams.
  • Detail‑oriented with a focus on accuracy and continuous process improvement.
  • The base compensation range for this position is $147,290 to $227,000 per annum. Your actual base salary will be determined based upon numerous factors which may include relevant experience, skills, location (labor market data), credentials (education, certifications), and internal equity.
