Job Description:
Experience: 8+ Years
Role Overview: We are looking for a seasoned Functional Consultant specializing in Oracle Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) and Demand Management to partner with business stakeholders in shaping, streamlining, and governing the demand-to-supply planning process. This role is centered on business process ownership, requirements definition, and driving planning maturity across the organization — translating business needs into Oracle-enabled planning solutions rather than deep technical configuration.

Key Responsibilities:
Own and facilitate the end-to-end S&OP business process: demand review, supply review, pre-S&OP reconciliation, and executive S&OP meetings
Partner with Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Supply Chain leadership to gather business requirements and translate them into functional specifications for Oracle Demand Management and S&OP
Drive consensus demand planning by facilitating alignment between statistical forecasts, sales inputs, and market intelligence
Define and refine forecasting hierarchies, planning calendars, KPIs, and exception-management workflows aligned to business objectives
Lead fit-gap analysis and functional design workshops, ensuring the solution reflects industry best practices and organizational planning maturity goals
Act as the primary liaison between business users and technical/IT teams during implementation, enhancement, and support phases
Develop and deliver training, SOPs, and change management materials to drive user adoption of planning processes and tools
Analyse forecast accuracy, bias, and planning KPIs (MAPE, forecast attainment, inventory turns) and recommend process improvements
Support business case development, ROI analysis, and planning process maturity assessments
Provide thought leadership on demand sensing, integrated business planning (IBP), and S&OP process design during client engagements or internal transformation initiatives

Required Skills & Qualifications:
8+ years of experience in supply chain planning, with strong functional expertise in Sales & Operations Planning and Demand Management processes (Oracle Cloud/EBS environment)
Deep understanding of demand planning methodologies — statistical forecasting, consensus planning, new product introduction (NPI) forecasting, and lifecycle planning
Proven experience designing and facilitating S&OP governance processes, including executive-level reviews
Strong business process orientation with the ability to bridge functional requirements and system capabilities
Excellent stakeholder management, facilitation, and executive communication skills
Experience conducting workshops, requirements gathering sessions, and process maturity assessments
Working knowledge of Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM (Demand Management, S&OP) is expected, though the focus is on process ownership rather than technical configuration
Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, Business, or related field; APICS/CPIM, CSCP, or SCOR certification preferred; MBA a plus

Nice to Have:
Experience in industries such as manufacturing, CPG, retail, or life sciences
Familiarity with Integrated Business Planning (IBP) frameworks and demand-sensing tools
Exposure to change management and organizational readiness for planning transformations
