The role manages supply across multiple planning horizons - the rolling three-month supply plan, the rolling one-month production plan and detailed weekly production requirements - ensuring alignment between market demand and manufacturing capability. In doing so, the Supply Planner serves as the key link between the demand the business wants to fulfil and the supply the organization is capable of delivering.\nJob Responsibilities\nA. Demand-to-Supply Planning\nReceive the agreed demand / consensus forecast from Demand Planning and translate it into supply and production requirements by SKU, plant and relevant supply location.\n\nConvert unconstrained demand into a realistic constrained supply plan, considering manufacturing capability, inventory, material availability and other supply-chain constraints.\n\nAssess changes in demand and determine their impact on production, capacity and inventory.\n\nB. Rolling Supply & Production Planning\nDevelop and maintain the rolling three-month supply plan based on the latest approved demand.\n\nTranslate the medium-term plan into a detailed rolling one-month production requirement.\n\nConvert the monthly plan into weekly production requirements / schedules in coordination with manufacturing teams.\n\nC. Capacity & Constraint Management\nEvaluate demand against available manufacturing capability and proactively identify supply constraints.\n\nConsider line capacity and demonstrated production rates, OEE and utilization assumptions, available shifts and operating hours, planned and unplanned maintenance, changeovers and sequencing, minimum runs / batch sizes, labour availability, quality restrictions, yield and process losses, material availability, shutdowns and external manufacturing limitations.\n\nFor significant constraints, assess the affected SKU, quantity and period, and determine the impact on product availability.\n\nD. Inventory & Product Availability\nEnsure appropriate finished-goods availability to support customer demand.\n\nMaintain forward visibility of projected inventory and days of cover by SKU / location.\n\nIdentify potential stock-outs before they occur and initiate preventive actions.\n\nE. Manufacturing & Production Coordination\nWork closely with manufacturing teams to agree feasible production plans and priorities.\n\nUnderstand plant capacity, operational limitations and production constraints.\n\nValidate the feasibility of production plans considering capacity, inventory and availability of required materials.\n\nF. S&OP / IBP & S&OE\nProvide the consolidated supply view as an input into the S&OP / IBP process.\n\nHighlight supply-demand gaps, capacity constraints, inventory concerns and key supply risks.\n\nDevelop scenarios and recommendations for unresolved supply issues.\n\nG. New Products, Promotions & Product Transitions\nIncorporate new product launches, promotions, relaunches, pack changes and seasonal events into the supply plan.\n\nCoordinate with Demand Planning, Commercial, Marketing, Manufacturing and other stakeholders to ensure supply readiness.\n\nValidate production capability and overall supply readiness before launches or major promotions.\n\nH. Supply Risk & Exception Management\nMaintain forward visibility of potential supply risks across manufacturing and the wider supply network.\n\nAssess the impact of production losses, demand changes, material shortages and other disruptions.\n\nDevelop recovery and contingency scenarios.\n\nJob Specifications/Qualifications\nEducation & Professional Qualifications\nMBA or equivalent degree, preferably with specialization in Supply Chain, Operations, Logistics or a related discipline.\nKnowledge / Experience\nMinimum 3 years of relevant work experience in Supply Planning, Production Planning, Inventory Planning, Materials Planning or a related Supply Chain role.\n\nExperience in FMCG, Foods, Consumer Products or a high-volume manufacturing environment is preferred.\n\nExposure to multiple SKUs, production lines, plants and distribution locations would be advantageous.\n\nUnderstanding of S&OP / IBP / S&OE processes is desirable.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4300,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Pet Food, Supplies & Care","Confectionery"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-01T11:04:13Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":30,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.537,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":22,"expected_fill_days":17,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:tail","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T01:24:12Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1588,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":94439},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=94439"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmars-supply-planner-rtec-mars-snacking-mumbai"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3586122}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"mars.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3586122},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
