The ideal candidate will champion Integrated Business Planning (IBP) processes, leveraging the Oliver Wight framework to enhance forecast accuracy, optimize inventory levels, minimize obsolescence and support executive decision making. Let’s Talk About The Role
As the
Demand Planning Manager , you will lead the execution and alignment of demand review, consensus review planning processes across the region. You’ll serve as the critical link between demand forecasts, consensus review planning, inventory strategies, and IBP execution. This role focuses on demand management to ensure development and refinement of customer demand is met in an accurate, timely, and scalable way using advanced assumptions‑based planning, statistical modeling, scenario analysis, and predictive analytics. Your leadership will identify risks, integrate historical sales trends, leverage market intelligence to detect demand drivers (seasonality, promotions), and consider product lifecycle stages (e.g., NPI, EOL, cannibalization) while driving cross‑functional alignment to ensure seamless product flow and a resilient supply network. Key Responsibilities
Act as lead facilitator of consensus‑building across sales and marketing teams, finance, product development, and supply chain through structured demand reviews at the account and regional level. Conduct in‑depth analysis of sales data, macroeconomic trends, regulatory changes, competitive intelligence, and internal demand signals to identify patterns, risks and opportunities. Spearhead elements of the IBP cycles, preparing for Demand Reviews and S&OE meetings, delivering strategic insights and recommendations to bridge demand‑supply gaps and mitigate risks. Utilize advanced analytical tools and forecasting techniques for what‑if scenario modeling and monitor KPIs to optimize demand plans and inventory positions. Partner with finance to integrate demand forecasts and inventory strategies with revenue projections, quarterly budgeting and long‑term financial planning. Address demand forecasting outputs that exceed tolerances and communicate adjustments to stakeholders to maintain transparent forecasting. Drive new product introductions by translating market insights into demand volumes, documenting assumptions, and managing phase‑outs or cannibalization effects to minimize obsolescence and excess stock. Implement and optimize IBP tools and processes, serving as the SME for demand planning and inventory management software and promoting best practices across the organization. Champion continuous improvement using methodologies like DMAIC, Lean Six Sigma, or the Oliver Wight framework to elevate demand planning and inventory management. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Analytics, Finance, or a related field. 5+ years of experience in demand planning or related roles, ideally within the medical device, pharmaceutical, or healthcare sector, with demonstrated mastery in assumptions‑based planning, statistical forecasting, and inventory optimization. Proven track record of driving consensus through influence and enabling cross‑functional collaboration in matrix organizations, particularly with product, revenue, marketing and finance teams. Exceptional communication and presentation abilities, capable of distilling complex data for non‑technical stakeholders and senior leadership. Strong data‑driven analytical skills and proficiency in data tools (e.g., Excel, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Python) and advanced planning systems (e.g., o9, Oracle Demantra, SAP APO, Blue Yonder, Anaplan, JDA). Robust business and financial acumen, including linking demand and inventory management to revenue forecasting, cost optimization, profitability analysis, and risk assessment. Proficiency in statistical methods, forecasting techniques, inventory control models (e.g., EOQ, ABC analysis), and KPI evaluation (e.g., Forecast Error, Bias, FVA, DSI). Preferred
Master’s degree or MBA or advanced professional certifications (e.g., APICS CPIM, CSCP, IBP, CPF) preferred. Expertise in the Oliver Wight framework for IBP or S&OP, including leading consensus reviews, process maturity assessments, and executive governance. Knowledge of medical device regulatory requirements, product launches, global inventory networks, and familiarity with lean methodologies. We are shaping the future at ResMed. We offer holistic benefits packages, flexible work arrangements, and a culture that encourages personal and professional growth. Eligible employees receive a comprehensive benefits package including medical, vision, dental, life, AD&D, disability insurance, HSA/FSA options, 401(k) and ESPP, EAP, and tuition assistance.
