• Align planning outputs with promotional strategy, marketing calendar, GWP/sampling, and bundling initiatives
• Monitor launch and campaign performance and dynamically reforecast based on early signals (within ~4–8 weeks)
• Identify risks early (stock-outs, overstock, slow movers) and drive timely mitigation actions
• Manage inventory health across markets, ensuring optimal availability while minimising excess and ageing stock
• Continuously refine forecasts based on real-time performance and structured feedback loops
• Ensure strong alignment between launch performance and future planning assumptions
• Identify inefficiencies and drive automation and process improvements across planning workflows
