In a nutshell, we're all about making great wine better, for everyone. We partner directly with the world's best independent winemakers to bring our members better-quality wine for a better price. No thirsty middlemen as far as the eye can see. It's a different way of doing things, sure. But it works. We're one of the UK's favourite wine clubs, shipping over 1 million (!) cases a year to curious wine lovers. And with an ambitious road ahead, we've got no plans on plugging the cork on growth. Our global team (we have offices in the US and Australia, too) is entrepreneurial by nature, obsessive about customer experience and driven by performance. All things that make Naked a great place to grow both personally and professionally. And yes, we like wine. A lot - we even have a wine fridge in the office. It takes a village to run Naked. That's why we're always on the lookout for eager talent to join the bunch. And now, our Planning team is looking for a Supply Network Planning Analyst to be part of the fun. As our Supply Network Planning Analyst, you will design, build, and maintain the decision-making tools that guide how stock moves through our supply network across two key markets, the US and AUS. Focused on execution, allocation, and systems optimisation, you will engineer spreadsheet models and GEM workflows to determine exact stock movements, optimise production timing and protect shelf-life viability. Serving as the primary collaborative bridge to our Commercial team in the US, you will provide clear visibility into stock availability, campaign readiness, and potential fulfilment risks. So if you're keen to help us connect more wine lovers with talented winemakers, there's a Naked welcome pack with your name on it. Together, we'll take Naked Wines to the next level - and share our not-so-well-kept secret with the world.
