#TEAMBULK ARE HIRING A DEMAND PLANNER
Bulk™ is on an incredible journey, with a mission to move the business from a manufacturing-led retailer to a destination brand for active nutrition. We are shaking up the sports nutrition industry through disruptive marketing campaigns that help people think differently about our brand – and we want you to be a part of it!
We want passionate risk-takers. We want people that like to challenge our thinking. We want people that live and breathe digital and have an affinity to the world of nutrition, health, fitness, and sports.
IN A NUTSHELL
At the heart of our business is our Supply Chain team, and we’re looking for a driven and passionate Demand Planner to join us.
This data-enabled team is responsible for maximising product availability across all of Bulk’s channels, ensuring an exceptional customer experience while staying within stock-holding targets. As a demand planning expert, you’ll leverage our planning software, FuturMaster, to provide the most realistic view of the business and support the delivery of our ambitious growth plans.
Working cross-functionally within the Supply Chain team (Planning and Procurement), you’ll ensure optimal stock levels are maintained across all locations at all times. You’ll also collaborate closely with Innovation, Marketing, Trading, and Brand to drive availability by developing the most accurate demand plan possible.

Analysing past sales figures and trends to anticipate future product performance at a SKU and group level for all our channels.
Produce an accurate demand plan covering short, medium, and long-term forecasts on a weekly and monthly basis.
Alignment with the financial team to create a clear reconciliation between the demand plan and the latest financial forecast.
Prepare & present reporting on KPIs for weekly & monthly meetings
Participate in the S&OP cycle and lead the Demand Review meetings
Supporting the other functions with data insights
Support in the initiative sizing of NPD/EPDs
Other ad-hoc projects and analysis as directed by the Supply Chain Director.
WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Experience in Demand Planning, ideally within an FMCG or similarly fast-paced environment.
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to interpret data, draw meaningful insights, and identify key performance drivers.
A curious mindset, comfortable asking “how” and “why” to support continuous improvement.
Able to manage multiple priorities and collaborate with a range of stakeholders to meet shared deadlines.
Comfortable taking ownership and making informed recommendations, even when working with ambiguity.
Adaptable and open to driving positive change and evolution.
Strong interpersonal, communication, and influencing skills, with a collaborative and team-oriented approach.
Results-focused, with the ability to make decisions and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
Customer-centric, with a commitment to delivering great experiences.
