Your primary goal will be to help clients realize significant cost savings by optimizing supply chain processes. You will work closely with the Supply Chain Planning Team to ensure end-to-end supply planning and execution. One of your key tasks will be to implement systems that support demand and supply planning processes by providing planners with the necessary tools for data analysis and decision-making. In this role, you will need to identify and assess complex problems within your area of responsibility. Your interactions will often involve senior management at client sites or within Accenture, where you may need to propose alternative approaches. Additionally, you may be required to manage large to medium-sized teams or work efforts, especially in client-facing roles. Please note that this position may involve working in rotational shifts. Your roles and responsibilities will include ensuring the delivery of an optimal end-to-end supply plan for the assigned DRBU/Category, taking into account cash, cost, and service considerations.

Additionally, you will create and approve inventory stockholding policies, segmentation strategies, and parameter automation policies within defined levels. You will also define planning horizons, make day-to-day planning decisions, and drive continuous improvement and change management initiatives to achieve the desired operational vision. Furthermore, you will be responsible for ensuring that all planning-relevant master data is complete and accurate across the required systems. Depending on the size and complexity of the Area/Category, you may also own activities related to distribution and inventory management or serve as a Master Planner.
