Demand Planner

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious mission: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.

More than 1/3 of all food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet. 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss.

Through our marketplace app, we connect businesses that have unsold, surplus food, with consumers who can buy and enjoy it at ⅓ of retail value. We are a certified B Corporation with a mission to empower everyone to take action against food waste. Alongside our marketplace app, we create educational tools, explore new business solutions, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.

We’re growing fast: Our community of 120+ million registered users and 247,000+ active partners across 19 countries, have together already saved 453+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 1.224.000 tonnes of CO2e!

Too Good To Go was named in FastCompany’s March 2022 list of the World's Most Innovative Companies, and was honoured to be included in TIME’s list of the 100 Most Influential Companies of 2022.

We are adding a Demand Planner to our team. Through creating accurate, data based demand plans, you will hold our business and partners accountable to robust plans that deliver a great customer experience. You will hold day to day responsibility for a specific set of countries, reporting into the Head of Planning , rolling up to the Global Director of Buying and Sourcing. 

Your Mission:

If you love food but hate food waste and want to work for a business that places its food-saving mission and customer experience at the core of each and every decision then look no further! 

Our “TGTG Parcel” (Manufacturing) business is a transformative solution that enables food manufacturers to effectively reduce food waste while extracting value from surplus food. Through direct purchasing from food manufacturers, Too Good To Go carefully curates and assembles the purchased products into “TGTG Parcels”, which are then offered to our users at a discount of ~50% off of original retail (including shipping costs).  Sold through our existing B2C marketplace, customers can opt to have their parcel conveniently delivered to their doorstep or pick it up from a nearby location, creating a surprise element as customers unbox their TGTG Parcel.  Instead of allowing these products to go to waste, manufacturers significantly decrease their environmental impact, optimise their revenue by maximising the value of saved food, and enhance product visibility in the market.

We are building a global team of best-in-class, ambitious, motivated, and collaborative people who all share a desire to change the world as well as have an inherent love of food! 

Key Responsibilities: 

• Produce and manage accurate daily, weekly, and monthly sales forecast projections, including managing the forecasting tools.
• Develop buy forecasts at the Parcel and Item level to optimise inventory position and maintain healthy stock cover.
• Continually review and improve the forecasting accuracy and methodology  
• Data analysis and reporting- supporting the S&OP process by preparing accurate reports of Sales, Inventory, Pricing and other data. 
• Drive collaborative planning processes related to daily business activities, special events, and seasonality.
• Monitor performance against forecasts, investigate variances, and identify root causes to apply learnings to future planning.
• Ensure clear, precise, and timely communication with the wider Parcels team, maintaining and sharing updated forecasts and plans to keep all relevant stakeholders informed and aligned.

Requirements:

• Experience working in a customer demand or production planning role
• Proven experience managing large data sets and a high degree of numerical literacy
• Advanced excel skills
• Proven understanding of the E2E FMCG supply chain
• You are based in Amsterdam or London 
• An inherently customer focused mindset - you will be developing a plan that allows the business to deliver an excellent customer experience
• An ability to focus on the detail as well as the ability to zoom out and look at the bigger picture when needed
• Excellent stakeholder management skills - you will work very closely with the Partner Managers and Procurement Operations team as well as the Parcels management team. You will be the face of the numbers and will help the wider team understand current and future performance
• An independent yet collaborative nature - your colleagues will be dotted all around the world so you must have the desire to connect and share with others virtually whilst being happy to work independently

Our values:

• We Win Together
• We Raise the Bar
• We Keep It Simple
• We Build A Legacy
• We Care
