شركة Supply Tech Nexus تعلن عن وظيفة أخصائي تخطيط الطلب والعرض في الرياض

Demand & Supply Planning Specialist - Beverages

📍 Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

• 🏢 Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages (Al Manhal)
• 💧 FMCG / Beverages
• Full-time On-site
  
  

The Context

Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages, a globally managed standalone business within the Nestlé Group with 35+ brands including S.Pellegrino, Perrier, and Nestlé Pure Life, is looking for a Demand & Supply Planner to join its Al Manhal Water Factory team in Riyadh. The role ensures the right products are available across all KSA branches and warehouses in the right quantities and at the right time - combining demand forecasting, production planning, material planning, and dispatch coordination.

What The Role Covers

Demand Planning & Forecasting

You collect and analyze regional and sales forecasts, warehouse available space, and production capacity. You conduct detailed forecast analysis per SKU, prepare statistical forecasts, and update DSP KPIs with root cause analysis and corrective and preventive actions. You identify key sales trend drivers across product groups to continuously improve demand planning accuracy.

Production & Material Planning

You create production plans based on available stocks, capacity, demand, and actual sales trends. You manage material planning covering raw and packaging materials with consideration for shelf life, warehouse capacity, and optimum inventory levels - coordinating closely with procurement and suppliers to meet required production volumes.

Supply & Dispatch Planning

You develop dispatch plans to ensure stock balancing across all KSA branches and warehouses, maintaining committed days of supply targets on a daily basis with no risk of bad goods or out-of-stocks. You coordinate closely with the logistics department on stock availability and movement.

Bridge Between Commercial & Operations

You play a key role between the commercial and technical sides of the business, communicating volume commitments and translating sales forecasts into actionable production and supply plans.

Candidate Profile

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Business, Marketing, or equivalent
• 3+ years of experience in FMCG industry supply chain
• SAP DSP/APO strong knowledge - mandatory
• Solid demand and supply planning knowledge and experience
• Good command of English
• Analytical mindset with ability to manage KPIs, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement
  
  

Why This Role Stands Out - Supply Tech Nexus Take

Al Manhal is one of the most established bottled water brands in Saudi Arabia, and operating within Nestlé's global supply chain framework gives this role both local operational depth and international planning methodology exposure. The SAP APO/DSP requirement is a meaningful technical filter - candidates with this specific planning tool experience are genuinely scarce in the KSA market, which strengthens negotiating leverage considerably. For demand and supply planners looking to build their FMCG credentials within a globally structured organization in Riyadh, this is a strong opportunity with Nestlé's reputation behind it.

Salary Benchmark - KSA Market (2024/2025)

For a Demand & Supply Planner with 3+ years of FMCG experience and SAP APO/DSP skills, based in Riyadh:

• Base salary: SAR 14,000 - 22,000/month
