The Team
Within the Supply Planning area of the TH Supply department our mission is to deliver the right product at the right time in every commercial region. This team serves as the backbone of our department, collaborating closely with commercial markets and supply sourcing regions to drive regional growth forward. With an integral position in the team, the role contributes significantly to the department's operational efficiency, strategic growth, and overall success.

The onshore supply planning team is split into two separate planning teams: one with a focus more on long-term planning, liability management, regional communication on the Full Price collections. And one with a more mid-to-short term focus on seasonal production planning, global buy execution, monthly direct sales business and never out of stock (NOS) assortments.

The Seasonal & Monthly Planning team is responsible for the production planning of the global seasonal full price collection, four times a year (Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter), as well as non-seasonal collections: the NOS assortment, which is a monthly replenishment model, and non-seasonal capsules and bestseller replenishments for our direct sales business.
