Up to £55,000 | Melton Industrial Estate, North Ferriby, Hull | Mon–Fri, 8am–5pm

Our client is a market-leading UK manufacturer based on Melton Industrial Estate, North Ferriby. They're investing seriously in SAP and bringing in an S&OP Planner to make it the single source of truth for demand, inventory and supply.

You'll sit at the junction of Sales, Commercial, Production and Procurement, turning commercial noise into a plan the business can actually run on.

What you'll be doing

• Lead the shift away from spreadsheets and manual workarounds toward proper SAP S&OP process
• Chair regular S&OP reviews, getting Sales, Supply Chain and Production genuinely aligned
• Own master data governance — validating requests, auditing data, keeping SAP clean and trustworthy
• Build dashboards and reports that give the business real visibility, not guesswork
• Balance inventory against working capital and customer service — enough stock, not too much
• Support new product introductions, making sure planning and master data are right from day one
• Coach the wider team to use SAP effectively

What you'll bring

• Solid hands-on experience with SAP ECC and/or S/4HANA in a planning or supply chain role, ideally across MM, PP and SD
• A background in demand planning, S&OP or supply chain planning — manufacturing or distribution preferred
• Working knowledge of forecasting methods, MRP and inventory principles
• The confidence to challenge how things are currently done, and the communication skills to bring people with you
• Comfortable managing multiple priorities without losing sight of the detail

What's on offer

• A salary of up to £55,000 per year depending upon experience
• 31 days holiday
• Monday to Friday, 8am–5pm — no weekends
