**Duties & Responsibilities**:
Strategic Planning:

Functional Strategy into Action Operationalisation:

- Work in conjunction with other Senior Managers in the Supply Chain team to co-create the supply chain strategy, based on a 1-2 years view of requirements.

- Facilitate the overall delivery of the demand plan within the category’s supply chain working across functions like customer, processing, procurement and distribution.
- Ensure that customer demand is appropriately met through active management of days cover, any agreed model stcok where appropriate, and providing guidance on priorities, both by SKU or customer.
- Deliver optimal customer service while maximizing profitability and minimizing distribution (both transport and storage) costs by managing the planning of stock carefully across regions or sites, where applicable.
- Ensure that the Rough Cut Capacity Plans (RCCP) meet the customer service targets, while meeting stock and cost (working capital and factory recoveries, warehouse and transport) targets (timeframe: weeks 1 - 104).
- Using the RCCP, manage and make recommendations on potential inhouse processing capacity constraints, factory capex requirements, and/or potential shortfalls against demand in order to meet customer demand (using the monthly rolling forecasts).
- Provide the Distribution and Customer Service Manager with the anticipated forward space and stock movement plan on a rolling monthly basis.
- Ensure that all plans maximise product mix to drive up profitability.

Short Term Supply Planning (Production Planning and MRP call-off):

- Drive the delivery of a detailed production plan to the factory taking into account factory constraints (line capacity, labour/ shift patterns), distribution constraints (warehousing and transport) as well as internal inbound constraints (birds, transporting of inhouse materials from other facilities) and external supplier constraints (eg: ingredients and packaging materials).
- Manage production that is made at a third party or remote in-house facility in line with RCL Foods’ planning procedures and take the necessary steps to align all new facilities to meet these requirements.

Stock Management (Finished Goods, Raw Materials, Packaging and Ingredients):
