The Opportunity
You'll become a key part in a leading gas company across the UK, playing a pivotal role in the success of future sales throughout the business based on your ability to organise. There are multiple routes to progression, both professionally and personally, with valuable insight into working in a high-profile company. If responsibility is what you are looking for then this opportunity is perfect from someone looking to take that next step or drive their career forward.
The Role
You'll use key sales and marketing data to predict future product demand, ensuring both organisational goals and customer needs are met. Your predictions will be fuelled by seasonal trends, and previous patterns, along with insights from the various sales teams. Utilising your analytical skills, you'll identify key opportunities for growth whilst also supporting an existing client base. Further to this, you'll:
- Play a key part in a risk assessment and mitigation activities
- Schedule weekly, monthly forecast meetings with stakeholders
- Identify areas of improvements and recommend action plans
- Present your feedback and findings to the senior leadership team
- Work closely with various stakeholders to ensure all data is accurate and provided in a timely manner

The Candidate
It goes without saying that as our ideal candidate you will have excellent organisational, and analytical skills. To thrive in this role, you must have at least 2 years' experience in demand planning or forecasting and have great proficiency in liaising with multiple stakeholders in a professional manner. Whilst it would help if you have a background in logistics, this wouldn't be detrimental to your application – a demonstrable background within workforce/supply chain planning would also be something else we would be keen to hear more about. Furthermore:
- Preferably have strong geographical knowledge of the UK
- Have a problem-solving mindset with strong collaboration skills
- Have the ability to build excellent working relationships
