  • Demand Management: Own demand planning across B2B Wholesale channel and key Greater China customers.
  • Forecasting: Generate statistical forecasts, clean historical data, and maintain product/customer hierarchies.
  • Innovation Planning: Support volume planning for new product launches and manage end-of-life cycle transitions.
  • Consensus Building: Facilitate customer demand review sessions and ensure alignment across stakeholders.
  • Performance Monitoring: Analyze forecast bias and accuracy, and drive actions to improve performance.
  • System Management: Ensure data integrity and manage forecast volumes and system cutovers.
  • SLOB Management: Monitor slow-moving and obsolete inventory and support exception-based planning.

What we offer:

  • A dynamic role where you'll help shape the future of demand planning at Blackmores. Your experience and fresh ideas will help evolve our demand planning function.
  • A collaborative team culture that values curiosity, innovation, and continuous improvement.
  • Great benefits to support your health and wellbeing, including access to discounted products.
  • Mental health support for you and your family through our Sonder assistance program.
  • Flexible work options through our FlexFit program.

Who are you?

  • Bachelor's degree in Logistics, Operations Planning, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of experience in demand planning or statistical forecasting.
  • Strong analytical skills and proficiency in tools like Excel, Power BI, and Microsoft Access.
  • Experience with advanced planning tools (e.g., SAP APO, JDE, Forecast Pro) and POS reporting tools (e.g., Nielsen).
  • Mandarin language skills and APICS CPIM certification are a plus.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Passionate about data, planning systems, and driving business impact.
