Supply Planner

Fishwife is a woman-founded and led food company aiming to make ethically-sourced, premium, and delicious tinned seafood a staple in every cupboard. We source from responsibly managed fisheries and aquaculture farms to bring the vibrance of conservas culture to the North American table. We launched in December 2020 and have been feature by publications like The New York Times, Bon Appetit, Forbes, Vogue, LA Times, INSIDER, and many more.

Fishwife works with a global network of canneries and co-manufacturers. That makes supply planning and purchasing the link between demand and revenue, and this role owns it.

The Supply Planner turns the demand plan into action, placing and owning every purchase order across our canneries, co-manufacturers, packaging suppliers, and merchandise suppliers, and holding those partners to the readiness dates the plan depends on. When an order is at risk, you’ll be the first to know and the fastest to respond. You’ll also lead the supply side of our monthly S&OP process, so the plan you build is the plan the company and our supply partners commit to.

This is a builder role. You’ll inherit trackers and spreadsheets, and you’ll be expected to replace them with something that still works when our volume doubles. If you like owning a number, working with partners on multiple continents, and being the reason a product never goes out of stock, this is the job.

This position is a full-time, remote role reporting to the Inventory & Reporting Senior Manager.

• Model the tradeoffs between the demand plan and the production plan at both component and finished goods level, and document the coverage and safety stock assumptions behind each buy
• Own the supply side of monthly S&OP: what we planned to buy, what we bought, the variance, and what that variance means for cash
• Oversee every PO from placement to confirmation to receipt, verifying quantities, pricing, terms, and dates with the supplier and reconciling every confirmation against what we ordered
• Accountable for every purchase order in Cin7 and the accuracy of the PO record as the single source of truth on status, quantity, and dates, current daily rather than weekly

• Track lead times, ready dates, ship dates, and production commitments across the network, and hold partners to them
• Flag supply delays and readiness gaps to planning early, with a recommendation rather than only a warning
• Expedite, resequence, split, or cut at‑risk orders to protect the plan, and state plainly what each option costs
• Build and run an on‑time, in‑full scorecard so partner performance is measured rather than remembered

• Own purchasing transactions in Cin7: PO records, receipts, lead times, and supplier data
• Work with Fulfillment and Logistics on inbound freight timing, so a confirmed ready date becomes a landed receipt
• Work with Finance on purchase timing, landed cost, and the cash impact of the buy plan
• Partner with Procurement on the supplier relationships, pricing, and sourcing decisions sitting behind the orders you place
