Work Setup: Onsite, 5 days per week
Compensation: $250,000-$280,000 base salary + bonus + equity
A global manufacturing organization is hiring a senior technology leader to drive the transformation of its supply chain planning capabilities. This is a high-impact leadership role focused on modernizing the systems, data, and processes that support demand planning, supply planning, inventory optimization, capacity planning, and factory execution.
This person will sit at the intersection of IT, supply chain planning, and manufacturing operations, owning the technology vision and roadmap for advanced planning platforms while partnering closely with business, operations, manufacturing, and executive stakeholders.
This is not a pure IT delivery role, and it is not a traditional supply chain operations role. The ideal candidate has led large-scale planning systems transformations in complex manufacturing environments and can speak fluently across planning, technology architecture, data, and shop-floor realities.
What You’ll Own
You will lead the strategy, roadmap, implementation, and continuous improvement of enterprise supply chain planning platforms and capabilities.
Key areas of ownership include:
- Demand forecasting and demand sensing
- Enterprise supply planning
- Capacity planning
- Factory start planning
- Order scheduling
- Inventory optimization
- S&OP / IBP process enablement
- Planning platform modernization
- ERP, MES, and planning system integration
- Master data governance and data quality
- Advanced analytics, AI/ML, and automation opportunities
You will help the organization answer critical planning questions:
- What demand should we trust?
- What can we realistically build?
- Where do we have capacity constraints?
- How much inventory should we hold?
- How do we improve customer availability without overbuilding?
- How do planning systems better support manufacturing execution?
Key Responsibilities
- Define and execute a multi-year technology roadmap for supply chain planning systems.
- Own the architecture, implementation, integration, operations, and ongoing enhancement of planning platforms.
- Lead transformation initiatives across demand planning, supply planning, factory planning, order scheduling, inventory optimization, and capacity planning.
- Partner with manufacturing operations to ensure planning outputs reflect real-world constraints, capacity, materials, changeovers, and production schedules.
- Drive better demand signals, inventory decisions, and supply plans through data, analytics, automation, and modern planning tools.
- Ensure planning systems are tightly integrated with ERP, MES, manufacturing, logistics, finance, and broader supply chain systems.
- Establish strong master data governance and planning data integrity across systems.
- Work closely with supply chain planners, manufacturing leaders, IT teams, vendors, and senior executives.
- Lead change management, training, adoption, and communication for major planning transformation initiatives.
- Build and develop high-performing teams, including managers and technical/functional planning systems talent.
- Define future skillsets needed across planning technology teams and support upskilling and capability development.
What We’re Looking For
- 8+ years of experience delivering advanced supply chain planning solutions in a manufacturing environment.
- Strong background in planning systems such as Kinaxis RapidResponse, Blue Yonder/JDA, SAP IBP, SAP APO, o9, Oracle SCM Planning, Oracle ASCP, or similar platforms.
- Experience leading large-scale planning transformation, platform implementation, roadmap development, system integration, and post-go-live optimization.
- Strong understanding of demand forecasting, supply planning, capacity planning, factory planning, order scheduling, inventory optimization, and S&OP / IBP.
- Practical understanding of manufacturing constraints, capacity, changeovers, materials availability, production scheduling, and shop-floor realities.
- Ability to work across IT, supply chain, operations, manufacturing, finance, and executive leadership.
- Strong understanding of software architecture, enterprise systems, data flows, integrations, master data, and good system design.
- Experience using data, analytics, AI/ML, or automation to improve planning decisions.
- Proven ability to lead leaders, develop teams, manage vendors, and drive transformation across a complex organization.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Supply Chain, Data Science, or a related field. Master’s degree preferred.
Ideal Background
The strongest candidates will likely come from complex manufacturing environments such as:
- Semiconductor
- Electronics manufacturing
- Medical device
- Aerospace and defense
- Automotive
- Industrial manufacturing
- High-volume or highly constrained manufacturing
Experience in semiconductor or electronics manufacturing is highly preferred, especially where planning is closely tied to factory capacity, material constraints, and production execution.
Why This Role Is Compelling
This is a rare opportunity to own a critical enterprise planning technology function at scale. The organization is investing heavily in modernizing how it plans demand, supply, inventory, and manufacturing capacity. You will have the visibility, resources, and executive support to shape the planning technology roadmap and drive measurable business impact.
This role is best suited for someone who wants to own the “planning engine” behind a complex manufacturing business – the systems and data that help determine what gets built, when it gets built, how inventory is optimized, and how customers are served.

The organization is looking for a senior planning leader who can operate across two equally important dimensions. The first is enterprise planning ownership: demand planning, inventory optimization, supply planning enablement, and manufacturing capacity planning. The second is transformation leadership: modernizing planning processes, platforms, data, and ways of working.
This is not a purely strategic or people‑management role. You’ll be expected to remain technically fluent, challenge system and architecture decisions, and stay close to execution. You will lead through a “leader of leaders” model while setting the technical and analytical direction for planning across the enterprise.
You’ll partner deeply with manufacturing, supply chain, finance, and technology teams to ensure demand signals are actionable, realistic, and aligned with what can actually be produced-both now and as capacity scales over time.
What You’ll Be Doing
Own end‑to‑end enterprise planning, spanning demand planning, inventory optimization, supply planning, and capacity planning
Generate high‑quality demand signals that drive inventory strategy, supply plans, and long‑term manufacturing investment
Ensure tight alignment between demand, supply planning, manufacturing operations, and financial plans
Define and own the planning technology vision, architecture, and multi‑year roadmap
Lead transformation initiatives leveraging modern planning platforms, advanced analytics, automation, and AI/ML capabilities
Drive legacy planning system modernization and ERP‑integrated planning transformations
Partner closely with manufacturing to support factory start plans, scenario planning, and footprint expansion
Interpret large, complex datasets to identify trends and guide enterprise decision‑making
Lead change management, communication, training, and adoption efforts across global planning teams
Develop and mentor senior leaders, establish consistent processes, and define future skill requirements for the planning organization
What They’re Looking For
Significant experience leading enterprise‑scale planning or supply chain transformation initiatives
Deep expertise across demand planning, supply planning, inventory optimization, and manufacturing capacity planning
Proven track record delivering modern planning systems and migrating from legacy platforms
Strong technical fluency with planning technologies, analytics, and data‑driven decision frameworks
Experience operating in complex, global manufacturing environments
Demonstrated success leading managers and senior leaders in distributed, global teams
Ability to operate hands‑on while setting long‑term strategic direction
Comfortable owning ambiguous, high‑impact problems and seeing them through end‑to‑end
Nice to Have
Background in highly technical or capital‑intensive manufacturing environments
Exposure to advanced analytics, automation, AI, or machine‑learning‑enabled planning
Experience supporting large‑scale manufacturing expansion or capacity growth programs
Strong change‑management instincts and experience driving adoption at scale

I've been a Senior Data Engineer for about 4-5 years and Harnham is one of the best recruitment agencies I worked with. There was a time when my offer fell through and the recruiter I was working with at Harnham jumped in to the rescue and scheduled interviews for me within a couple of days. Really good agency and some great people.

I've recently got a short-term contract role through Harnham, and things couldn't have gone better! My recruiter was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process.
