Senior Demand Planning Manager (m/f/d)

You enjoy turning forecasts into reality? You like structure, numbers, and processes — but you’re equally strong in leading people, creating clarity, and keeping teams aligned? Then this role is made for you.

As Senior Demand Planning Manager, you own the operational and tactical Demand Planning at IronMaxx. You translate centrally defined forecasts into stable demand, inventory, and ordering decisions, lead your team with clarity and empathy, and act as a close sparring partner to the Head of Forecasting.

While the final ownership of the forecast lies with the Head of Forecasting, you ensure that forecasts work in reality — operationally sound, executable, and stable across the supply chain.
