Martin Veasey Talent Solutions
Demand Planning Analyst - European Supply Chain
Martin Veasey Talent Solutions Dartford, London
Demand Planning Analyst - European Supply Chain Dartford, Kent (Hybrid) 30,000- 40,000 + Bonus + Benefits This is not an administrative role. It is a data-led planning role at the centre of a European supply chain. You are not someone who simply maintains spreadsheets or updates systems. You are the person who notices when something does not look right. You question it. You trace it back. You fix it. And in doing so, you prevent problems before they happen. This role exists because a growing international business has invested in modern demand planning tools and ERP systems - and now needs someone capable of making those systems work properly. Not by following process, but by understanding what sits behind the data. The environment The business operates a centralised European supply chain, distributing a high volume of SKUs across multiple markets from a single hub. Products are sourced globally, lead times are variable, and demand signals come from both systems and commercial teams. Planning here is not theoretical. It is operational. It is imperfect. It requires judgement. You will work with: A modern ERP system driving planning outputs Demand planning software using historical and live data Sales teams across Europe feeding in real-world demand signals A supply chain function that relies on data being right first time If the data is wrong, decisions are wrong. If decisions are wrong, stock is wrong. That is the level of impact this role carries. The role You will sit within the demand planning function, supporting the monthly planning cycle and ensuring the integrity of the data that drives it. Your work will involve: Interrogating data within ERP and planning systems to ensure accuracy Producing and refining Excel-based reporting that highlights risk and opportunity Supporting the creation of purchase plans by validating demand inputs Identifying potential stock issues before they materialise Engaging directly with sales teams to validate forecasts and challenge inconsistencies This is not a passive role. You are expected to notice, question, and escalate. The challenge The systems are in place - but they are only as good as the data behind them. You will need to: Work with evolving datasets and changing inputs Identify patterns and anomalies within large volumes of data Balance system outputs with real-world insight Communicate confidently with stakeholders who may challenge your findings This is an environment where: Not everything is defined Not everything is perfect And where your ability to think matters more than your ability to follow process Who you are You are already working in a role where data matters. You might be: A Supply Chain Analyst An Inventory Analyst A Demand Planning Assistant A Data Analyst within a product-based or distribution environment What defines you is not your title - it is how you approach problems. You: Are highly numerate and naturally analytical Have strong Excel capability (you are comfortable building, not just using) Understand how data connects to real-world outcomes Are confident enough to question and challenge when something does not make sense Prefer understanding over instruction You may not yet be a Demand Planner - but you are ready to become one. Why this role This is a role people move for because it accelerates their development. You will gain: Direct exposure to European demand planning processes Experience working with ERP and planning systems at scale The opportunity to influence decisions, not just report on them A clear pathway into demand planning, supply chain analytics, or broader planning roles This is not about stepping sideways. It is about stepping forward.
