  • Provide support for all new product launches and range reviews, ensuring timely availability of full quantities for Christmas, summer, and winter sales promotions across all markets.
  • Ensure accurate booking of all STOs and PO receipts.

What You Will Need:

  • Minimum of 3 years' experience in a manufacturing environment, preferably within the cosmetic and toiletries or FMCG sectors.
  • Proficiency in SAP within a supply and production setting.
  • Demonstrated success in interacting with key stakeholders, both internal and external (including third-party suppliers).
