Yeovil, United Kingdom Screwfix Full time

**Overview**

It’s a great time to join Screwfix. Thanks to the hard work of our team and record-breaking sales, we’re proud to be one of the fastest-growing retailers in the UK. And we want to pass that growth onto you.

As a Supply Chain Trade Counter Demand Planner, reporting to the Category Supply Manager, you'll be responsible for optimising our store replenishment system to maximise the availability of our products for our customers to fulfil our \"100% available from stock\" promise.

With a keen interest in data and a passion for analysis, you will play an integral part in the supply chain team. You'll work closely with the Distribution Centre Planner to understand future promotional and category plans, ensuring stores launch with the appropriate stock levels and are set up for success.

Here in our supply chain team, you'll be part of a fast-paced community where every day is different, with clearly defined availability targets and objectives providing the opportunity to shine as an individual and a category team.

We believe that a hybrid, flexible working approach offers you - and your colleagues - the best of both worlds. Face-to-face collaboration is an integral part of our warm, friendly culture, so you’ll work from our head office three days a week, working flexibly around our core working hours of 10am-3pm. Beyond that, how, when and where you work is up to you. With a subsidised canteen, free parking and a comfortable, relaxed environment, we’ve worked hard to build an office you’ll want to work in. We also know that, when it comes to school pick-ups and home deliveries, it’s nice to have the flexibility to do both.

**Key responsibilities**
- Take responsibility for the supply chain in to and out of our Trade Counters, ensuring that we have the right stock in the right place at the right time
- Maximise Front of House availability in stores to support promotional plans and catalogue launches, validating suggested Display quantities
- Review current sales rates and adjust the store optimums accordingly
- Reviewing Trade counter stock levels for new and existing products, reviewing against policy, and making changes where appropriate once launched
- Validate event promotion levels and ensure these are aligned with store capacity requirements
- Ensuring launch of new products to our Trade Counters whilst maintaining strong availability
- Agree exit plan of deleted products with Category Supply Manager and Supply Chain DC Planner, and manage trade counter stock run down
- Identify over-stock extraction opportunities, whilst following extraction process
- Manage Project quantities to ensure appropriate stock depth in stores, using TCND data to maximise customer experience
- Work closely with the Supply Chain DC planner to identify opportunities for stock, range, and seasonal optimisation
- Collaborate and form key internal relationships both within commercial and distribution network
- Work closely with our Central Replenishment team to efficiently maximise the throughput of products from the DC to Trade Counters

**Required skills & experience**
- Excel skills (pivot tables/v look ups - in house training available)
- Proven skills in data analysis - Understanding data trends
- Experienced in problem solving - able to anticipate and highlight opportunities, and take corrective action, whilst working within established procedures
- Be able to work on your own initiative, being accountable for your workload priorities and deadlines
- Range of communication skills - able to communicate via Microsoft Teams and office effectively both verbally and in writing to a range of audiences

**What’s in it for me?**

**Subsidised canteen**: We offer a great selection of hot and cold food at our subsidised canteen, as well as a warm, inviting place for you to eat. So whether you prefer a packed lunch or an easy life, we cater to all.
