Specialist, Inventory Planning

If you are up for the challenge of driving the inventory planning process and facilitating replenishment ordering to optimise sales opportunities in the European region, then grab this opportunity to join our S&OP team in Europe.
“We have an entrepreneurial approach in our team, so if you have ideas, we have the space. You’ll get to meet diverse cultures and perspectives as you interact with colleagues around the globe” explains Head of S&OP, Europe Daniel Bjørnhof.

Planning inventories to serve European markets
Based in Bredebro, you will join 5 colleagues responsible for the S&OP in the Europe region. You will take up an important role in the team, driving our inventory planning and replenishment processes including management of our Never Out Of Stock items, ultimately ensuring our inventories are transparent and balanced to serve our markets in Europe.

The key to success is having the right products, in the right volumes, in the right places and at the right time. Based on forecasts and sales performance, you will:

• Secure development, improvement, and transparency of replenishment processes
• Govern availability of seasonal products and Never Out of Stock
• Analyse inventory positions and take steps to make adjustments
• Create, review, and maintain inbound purchase orders
• Coordinate processes between markets and operations
• Establish reports, enabling data-driven decision-making

A combination soft skills and hard skills
You are able to interact with a broad range of stakeholders across the business, just as you excel in identifying gaps in a process and mitigating the gaps.

You have a natural curiosity, and you have the ability to switch between a bird’s-eye view perspective and diving down to make needed adjustments in practice.

Some of your tasks will be routine-based, and this should of course appeal to you, just as we hope you are looking to develop in the role to become a seasoned expert. In return, you get to take total ownership of your field of responsibility.

Finally, we imagine that you have:

• 2-3 years of experience within supply chain management - specific experience within inventory planning and order management disciplines is a plus
• Experience working in SAP
• Advanced skills in Microsoft Excel
• Experience with business analytics tools, e.g., PowerBI
• Good communication skills, including fluency in English

Candidates are required to hold a valid EU work permit.

A new step in your career
As a part of ECCO, you will automatically gain a wide array of development opportunities, whether you choose to remain in HQ or perhaps go to one of our markets or subregions. Also, we are not afraid to make your ideas come to life, so if you want to give your input, we do not have a long bureaucratic process before your ideas are put into action.

Are you ready for your next challenge?
We will invite candidates for interviews on an ongoing basis, so do not hesitate to apply.
