Planning Executive

Demand Planning
Build and maintain rolling demand forecasts by SKU, channel and region (monthly and quarterly horizons).
Consolidate inputs from Sales, Marketing, Bike Service, other dependent demand; adjust the baseline for promotions, launches, seasonality and market events.
Track forecast accuracy (MAPE, bias) and run root-cause analysis on misses;
Facilitate the monthly demand review with commercial teams to reach a consensus forecast.
Supply Planning
Translate the consensus demand into a Master Production Schedule (MPS) and run MRP for materials and components.
Work with Production on capacity, line balancing and feasible production windows.
Work with Purchasing on lead times, supplier capacity and risk; coordinate expedites or alternative sources when needed.
Run scenario analyses (upside, downside, supply disruption) and recommend mitigation actions.
Inventory Planning
Set and regularly review safety stock, reorder points and target inventory levels by category.
Monitor inventory health: stock cover, turnover, ageing, slow-moving and obsolete (SMO); drive corrective actions.
Partner with Warehouse on cycle counts, stock accuracy and FIFO discipline.
Drive working-capital improvements through inventory optimization without hurting service levels.
S&OP and Cross-Functional Coordination
Drive the monthly S&OP cycle: prepare materials, run pre-meetings, facilitate the consensus meeting, document decisions and actions.
Align demand, supply and financial views; surface misalignments and trade-offs to leadership.
Work daily with Sales, Marketing, Production, Purchasing, Warehouse, R&D and Finance to keep the plan executable.
Reporting, Analysis & Continuous Improvement
Build and maintain planning dashboards and recurring reports (forecast accuracy, service level, stock cover, plan adherence, etc.).
Conduct ad-hoc analyses on plan variances, supply risks and working capital.
Identify opportunities to improve planning processes, data quality and automation; lead small improvement projects.
