Here at HEINEKEN, within our Customer Service and Logistics team, Our Supply Planning Team play a critical role in ensuring product availability in a dynamic environment where deliveries are time sensitive - it's all about prioritisation of workload.

Whats the role?

We need your planning experience because you'll be responsible for the review, expedition and management of supply for Third Party Drinks into the HEINEKEN distribution network.

Using your strong analytical skills, you'll be reviewing a large amount of data and making decisions on optimum replenishment levels using our internal SAP R3 IT systems, (we can train you on these if you are comfortable with systems), as well as Microsoft packages such as Excel, Outlook & Powerpoint.

With a strong customer focus, you will be working with our external suppliers and logistics partner GXO to support availability.

Action oriented and able to prioritise, you will be keen to identify and implement specific opportunities that will lead to more cost effective ways of working

What are we looking for?

This is a role for someone with ambition, our logistics partners, GXO, are investing heavily in their infrastructure and functionality as they want to be the biggest and best at what they do - and you will work very closely with them.

You will be accountable for spending millions of pounds per annum, so taking ownership of decision making is also a key requirement - but we think you're the kind of person who will enjoy that responsibility

Have a high level of communication and interpersonal skills
Have previous SAP Experience
Have previous experience of materials planning
Be a flexible worker who enjoys a level of autonomy
Able to take ownership and show resilience

As this role is office based, please note we currently operate a hybrid working framework which allows us to capture the benefits of both working in the office and at home.

For full time roles, we work a minimum of 3 days in the office, a Tuesday and Thursday are for all, with the third day being defined by the colleague.
