A Day in the Life

As a Demand and Supply Planner for our Consumer Products Division in Cairo, you will be the crucial link between market demand and our supply chain operations. You will ensure our iconic brands like L'Oréal Paris, Garnier, and Maybelline New York are always available for our consumers by balancing forecasts with optimal inventory levels. You'll collaborate closely with Sales and Marketing on the demand side, and with factories and logistics on the supply side.

Your main responsibilities will be:

• Integrated Planning: Develop accurate sales forecasts based on historical data and market intelligence and translate them into effective supply plans.
• Inventory Management: Manage and optimize stock levels across the portfolio to ensure product availability, prevent shortages, and minimize overstocks.
• Collaborative S&OP: Lead the demand review process and actively participate in the full Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) cycle to ensure alignment between all functions.
• Performance Analysis: Monitor key performance indicators for both demand (forecast accuracy) and supply (service level, stock coverage), identifying root causes for deviations and implementing corrective actions.

We Are Looking For
