Demand Planning Analyst

Farmer’s Fridge makes fruits and vegetables accessible and approachable for everyone. We offer a variety of fresh, healthy, ready-to-eat meals and snacks through our fresh food vending machines, wholesale partners, and our office pantry solution — providing chef-curated meals to customers within seconds. Today, we operate a network of Fridges and partner with clients nationwide in high-foot-traffic areas, such as airports, hospitals, universities, and large office buildings — where there is limited accessibility to fresh, healthy, grab-n-go options.

We care deeply about what we’re creating and aspire to make sure our customers feel that through every touchpoint. This shows up in many ways across the business. We are committed to prioritizing food safety, we are passionate about product quality, we value our employees, we champion the best idea no matter where it comes from, and we’re committed to making an overall positive impact as we scale. 

About the Role: We are looking for a Demand Planning Analyst to join our team and play a critical role in executing our demand forecasting process. You will work cross-functionally with Demand Planning, Supply Chain, Finance, Sales, and Analytics to optimize our planning operations and improve our accuracy for our 1,700 locations. The ideal candidate is analytically strong, technically proficient, and comfortable working with large datasets to drive actionable insights.

What You’ll Do…

• Work closely with the Supply Chain team on forecasting and scheduling.
• Pull, analyze, and visualize data from our data warehouse to support demand planning decisions.
• Maintain and improve our item-level production forecasts, ensuring continuous optimization.
• Track and report key demand metrics on a daily and weekly basis.
• Collaborate with Finance, Analytics, Sales, Production, and Operations to align on demand input.
• Partner with the Data & Analytics team to enhance forecasting models and reporting capabilities.

Who You Are…

• 2 years of experience in an analytical or demand planning role, preferably handling large datasets.
• Strong Excel & Google Sheets skills (pivot tables, formulas, data manipulation).
• Experience with SQL for data extraction and analysis.
• Familiarity with BI & data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker, Power BI).

• Bonus: Knowledge of Python or R for demand forecasting and analytics.
