Description
Why we are here
Tony's Chocolonely is committed to ending exploitation in cocoa. We are an impact company that makes chocolate, not a chocolate company that makes impact. With incredibly tasty chocolate, we lead by example, demonstrating that ethical practices and success can go hand in hand.
As our new Senior Supply Planner, you'll help ensure Tony's iconic bars are available for chocofans across Europe - on time, in full, and produced with care and efficiency
Responsibilities
- Take ownership of the short-term production plan for Tony's bars, ensuring great customer service while thoughtfully managing capacity constraints and production risks (weekly CFR).
- Manage finished product and material stock levels, keeping stock cover within agreed ranges and finding the right balance between availability, cash and waste.
- Own and improve production strategies and planning parameters (e.g. cycle times, lot sizes, capacity assumptions and safety stocks), strengthening service reliability, flexibility and cost efficiency across categories.
- Act as key user for Jedox: set planning standards, support consistent use across the team, and work with implementation partners on system improvements.
- Own monthly planning scorecards, align root causes together with multi-disciplinary stakeholders, and turn insights into practical improvement actions.
- Work closely with internal and external production partners as a senior supply chain counterpart, helping the team move forward together.
Requirements
- Relevant experience in supply chain or production planning, ideally within FMCG (food, cosmetics or similar).
- A strategic mindset combined with hands-on planning experience; you enjoy connecting the bigger picture with daily decisions.
- Proven experience working with factories and production partners, including navigating constraints, setting priorities and making pragmatic decisions.
- Curious with data and comfortable using insights to support decisions; strong Excel skills are a must.
- Comfortable working in a growing, sometimes slightly chaotic environment - you notice what's missing and take initiative to improve it.
- Clear and thoughtful communicator with strong stakeholder skills across different teams and levels; experience with ERP or planning systems (Jedox or Business Central is a plus).
