A market-leading international FMCG business is looking for a Senior Business Planning Manager to drive a major planning transformation across its European operation. This is a high-profile role with significant visibility across the leadership team, offering the opportunity to design and implement a best-in-class Sales & Operations Planning framework from the ground up. Working closely with senior stakeholders across Supply Chain, Sales, and Finance, you'll play a pivotal role in creating a more proactive, data-led and commercially aligned planning culture.
Leading the design and deployment of the regional S&OP process, you will establish governance structures, define planning cycles, and create standardised ways of working across multiple European markets. You'll facilitate cross-functional collaboration, introduce robust KPI frameworks and help build a single version of the truth for planning activities. A key focus will be leading a pilot programme before successfully scaling the model across the wider region, ensuring executive-level engagement and long-term adoption.
To be successful, you'll bring extensive experience within Supply Chain Planning, S&OP, or Integrated Business Planning environments, with a proven track record of delivering large-scale transformation projects across complex, multi-country organisations. You'll be a strong project leader with the ability to influence senior stakeholders; challenge established processes and drive behavioural change. Experience implementing planning tools, developing reporting frameworks, and bringing together commercial and operational teams around one plan will be highly advantageous.
This is an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious planning professional seeking a role where they can leave a legacy and directly influence business performance across Europe.
