Location: Alexandria, Egypt Reports to: Chief Operating Officer Level: Senior / Individual Contributor with cross-functional leadershipRole Summary The Senior Supply & Demand Planner owns the end-to-end demand and supply planning cycle across ATG.
This role drives the monthly S&OP process, owns forecast accuracy at SKU level, and acts as the decision-support authority on stock health, replenishment, and availability trade-offs.
It also plays a direct part in enabling the commercial team to deliver on budget, translating stock positioning and demand signals into actionable insight for sales.
The right candidate combines analytical depth with the credibility to challenge commercial assumptions and influence procurement decisions.
Key Responsibilities Planning ● Own the monthly S&OP cycle end-to-end: prepare the demand review, consolidate supply and commercial inputs, facilitate alignment sessions, and track execution of agreed actions. ● Own the statistical baseline forecast at SKU level; select and refine forecasting methods, incorporate market intelligence and branch-level performance, and drive continuous forecast accuracy improvement. ● Build the expected sales plan against confirmed goods arrival schedules; manage revisions as supply conditions change and lead demand planning for new SKU introductions. ● Present planning outcomes, risks, and trade-offs to senior management with clear recommendations, not just data.
Inventory Distribution and Health ● Design and maintain the inventory distribution model across ATG's DC and branch network, ensuring the right stock is in the right location to maximize availability and minimize redistribution cost. ● Define stock allocation rules and replenishment triggers per branch based on sales velocity, service level targets, and working capital constraints; coordinate with the purchasing team to align on supply constraints. ● Identify distribution imbalances across nodes and drive rebalancing quickly; own slow-moving and non-moving exposure analysis by warehouse and branch and produce markdown or redistribution recommendations before exposure compounds. ● Monitor DIO, aging, and availability targets at branch level and drive corrective action plans with commercial and warehouse teams.
Commercial Enablement ● Translate demand and stock data into branch-level commercial briefings: which SKUs are available to push, where margin opportunity exists, and which categories are constrained. ● Participate in branch-level sales reviews to align on gaps to budget and surface planning constraints limiting commercial performance; support sales budget phasing with realistic supply-side inputs. ● Challenge order quantities against forecast, stock position, and cash constraints before commitment; provide structured input into procurement decisions including size-mix optimization. ● Act as the primary point of contact for supply chain planning, inventory, and replenishment inquiries across sales, logistics, and purchasing stakeholders.
Reporting, Tools & Process Improvement ● Own the group planning reporting suite: sales performance, stock and aging, sell-in vs. sell-out, target vs. budget variance, and order pipeline visibility. ● Ensure data integrity and accuracy across all systems used for supply chain planning; leverage planning tools and BI software to improve visibility and decision speed. ● Identify and implement process improvements to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of demand planning, inventory management, and replenishment; stay current on industry best practices. ● Automate recurring reporting and set analytical standards for the planning function.
Requirements● 5 to 8 years in demand planning, supply planning, or S&OP roles in distribution, automotive, or multi-SKU retail environments. ● Proven S&OP ownership and demonstrable forecast accuracy improvement track record. ● Hands-on experience managing inventory distribution across a multi-location network, including DC and branch allocation, rebalancing, and slow-mover management. ● Demonstrated ability to work alongside commercial or sales teams, translating planning data into actionable insight. ● Advanced Excel and strong data modeling skills;
Power BI or equivalent BI tool experience preferred. ● Strong commercial acumen, able to link planning decisions to margin, cash, and service outcomes. ● Confident communicator able to influence senior stakeholders and challenge assumptions constructively. ● English and Arabic proficiency; ability to coordinate across Egypt and Saudi Arabia operations.
