You enjoy working with products, sales numbers, stock levels and availability? You like structure, numbers and operational follow-up — but you are also strong in communication and keeping topics moving across departments?

Then this role is made for you.

As Merchandise & Replenishment Planner
, you ensure that the right products are available in the right quantities, at the right time and in the right channels. This is not a classic demand planning role focused only on forecasting.

You translate forecasts, sales trends, stock levels and commercial priorities into concrete replenishment, inventory and ordering decisions. You work closely with Forecasting, Sales, Purchasing, Logistics, Customer Success and Finance to make sure availability, supply and execution stay under control.
