  • Partner cross-functionally with brand, commercial, and finance teams to ensure coherent category strategies and commercially viable plans.
  • Monitor performance across sales, margin, and price-value mix versus plan, delivering insights, identifying risks and opportunities, and driving required plan adjustments.
  • Shape and continuously improve planning processes, governance, and ways of working across seasonal planning cycles.
  • Develop and enhance planning, reporting, and dashboarding tools to strengthen data quality, transparency, and insight generation.
  • Contribute to demand-planning–related projects and initiatives, including ad-hoc analyses, pilots, and cross-functional improvements.

KEY RELATIONSHIPS:

  • SEA Demand Planning and FP&A team
  • SEA Commercial and Brand teams
  • Country Leadership, Channel and Brand teams
  • Country Brand Finance teams
  • Marketing Operations team
  • Supply Chain Management Team

  • High level of commercial and business acumen, with the ability to challenge assumptions and drive alignment across Sales, Marketing, and Finance.
  • Proactive, well-organized, and adaptable, with a growth mindset and a continuous-improvement approach to tools, processes, and ways of working.
