This candidate offers 2 years of experience as a Supply Chain Planner, primarily within wholesale. Their recent work has included forecasting demand, analysing supply risks and reviewing stock levels, with regular responsibility for stakeholder coordination and demand planning. They are comfortable using Excel, SAP and Oracle, and are confident learning new systems when processes or reporting requirements change. Colleagues would describe them as clear in communication and confident with stakeholders, with a consistent focus on accuracy, follow-through and clear communication. One of their stronger recent contributions involved work that reduced stockouts, while they also contributed to initiatives that improved forecast accuracy. They are used to working with managers, colleagues and external stakeholders, and can adjust their communication style depending on the audience and urgency of the issue. The candidate is particularly strong in supply planning and data analysis, and tends to approach problems by understanding the detail first before deciding on a practical next step. They have also had exposure to manufacturing, giving them a useful ability to adapt to different operating environments, systems and stakeholder expectations. They are now looking for a long-term role with room to grow. In their next move, career progression is an important consideration. They work best in environments where responsibilities are well defined but there is still room to take initiative. In interview, they present as considered and straightforward, with a preference for giving practical examples rather than overstating their experience.
