Senior S&OP Analyst
About Rohlik Group
At Rohlik Group, we move fast — across five markets, multiple brands, and a Retail Media ecosystem that’s scaling rapidly alongside our core business. To keep that momentum strong, we need precise campaign execution, seamless coordination, and a sharp eye for detail that ensures every campaign delivers real value to our partners.
Why This Role Is Exciting
Build from the Ground Up: You won't just execute a process someone else built—you are one of the founding members of a brand-new department, giving you a direct hand in shaping the future of Supply Chain at Rohlik.
Direct Business Impact: Your forecasts directly dictate inventory levels, labor scheduling, and delivery capacity across 5 countries and 12 fulfillment centers.
Automation & Ownership: You have the autonomy and mandate to kill manual spreadsheets. If a process is repetitive, you get to spearhead its automation alongside our BI and Engineering teams.
High-Growth E-Commerce Environment: Work in a fast-paced, high-velocity e-commerce and grocery ecosystem where data-driven decisions directly affect daily operations and customer satisfaction.
What You'll Do
Demand Forecasting: Own the daily and weekly production of the group demand forecast (orders, SKU/order, and intraday shapes) across all markets, fulfillment centers, and planning horizons.
Accuracy & Bias Ownership: Drive forecast accuracy and bias performance by market and horizon; conduct deep-dive root-cause analyses on deviations and implement corrective actions.
S&OP Core Analysis: Build and own the demand review pack and scenario models for the S&OP cycle, including quantified upside and downside cases.
Operational Alignment: Translate agreed demand into actionable inventory, warehouse workload, labor, throughput, and delivery requirements for operating functions.
Automation & Optimization: Proactively drive the automation of manual routines (e.g., mass-upload/locking for SKU edits, demand-chaser redesigns, automated AOV forecasting) instead of working around system gaps.
Executive Decision Support: Prepare daily and weekly data, analysis, and options that feed into executive updates and S&OP governance rituals.
Peaks & Campaigns: Lead forecasting prep for campaigns, seasonal transitions, and peak events, ensuring every manual adjustment is documented with clear assumptions and rationale.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with market planners, Category, Marketing, Fulfillment, Last Mile, and BI teams to collect quantified inputs on time and keep planning data trustworthy.
Governance & Resilience: Actively identify and flag process gaps (single points of failure, missing notifications, undocumented calls) to make the department increasingly resilient over time.
What We're Looking For
Required:
3+ years of experience in Demand Planning, Forecasting, Supply Chain Planning, or Business Analytics.
Hands-on ownership of a recurring forecast within a high-velocity retail, e-commerce, logistics, or operational environment.
Advanced command of forecasting methodologies, scenario modeling, and forecast accuracy metrics.
Strong analytical stack: advanced spreadsheet modeling and SQL (or equivalent) to query large data sets independently.
Ability to specify tooling improvements and drive automation alongside engineering/BI teams.
Working knowledge of BI and visualization tools (Tableau, Power BI, Looker, or similar).
Proven ability to enforce standards and deadlines across multiple markets while clearly communicating analytical insights to non-technical stakeholders.
Fluent English.
Preferred:
Background in online grocery or fresh/perishable goods retail.
Prior exposure to an established S&OP / IBP cycle.
Experience converting demand forecasts into labor, fulfillment, or transport requirements.
Scripting or automation experience (e.g., Python) beyond standard spreadsheets.
Knowledge of Czech or Slovak is a plus.
