This candidate offers 4 years of experience as a Supply Chain Planner, primarily within wholesale. Their recent work has included planning inventory, forecasting demand and coordinating suppliers, with regular responsibility for supply planning and inventory management. They are comfortable using SAP, ERP systems and Power BI, and are confident learning new systems when processes or reporting requirements change. Colleagues would describe them as process-minded, accurate and consistent, with a consistent focus on accuracy, follow-through and clear communication. One of their stronger recent contributions involved work that improved supplier planning, 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 demand planning and forecasting, and tends to approach problems by understanding the detail first before deciding on a practical next step. They have also had exposure to FMCG, giving them a useful ability to adapt to different operating environments, systems and stakeholder expectations. They are now looking for a role offering a mix of autonomy and support. In their next move, greater ownership of their work is an important consideration. They value stability, professional standards and a workplace where people follow through on commitments. In interview, they present as considered and straightforward, with a preference for giving practical examples rather than overstating their experience.
