Supply Chain Allocator

This is your daily action

The main purpose of the Supply Chain Allocator is to create, maintain, monitor and guard all stock allocations towards our stores, based upon the commercially planned moments for new articles, promotions and seasonal assortment.

Responsibilities:

• Create and optimize allocation plans for multiple inflow types, using data from Assortment, Promo, and Commercial teams and working with the Symphony Replenishment and Allocation platform.
• Support smooth assortment phase‑in and phase‑out, translating commercial plans into efficient stock flows.
• Manage time‑critical and urgent flows, such as promotions, new articles and seasonal uplifts
• Control planning timelines and deadlines for pushes and inflow across all categories and commercial seasons.
• Collaborate across our Planning and Supply Chain teams to continuously improve processes, ensuring high‑quality execution supported by clear KPIs and milestones.
