Are you a numbers-driven strategist with a flair for turning data into action ? We're looking for a sharp, commercially minded Sales Planner to join our South Africa team. In this role, you'll be at the heart of sales forecasting, planning, and analysis, helping to shape strategy, optimise performance, and influence decision-making at senior levels.

If you thrive in a high-paced environment, love diving into data, and want to make a real impact in a growing, dynamic business, this opportunity has your name written all over it.

What You'll Be Doing :

  • Own and prepare management and head office reports
  • Manage operational sales forecasting, preparing six-monthly forecasts based on orders, market trends, and seasonal insights
  • Prepare reports analysing sales and gross margin data
  • Contribute to the creation of yearly budgets and track the follow-up of sales actions
  • Manage sales budget and revised budget cycles
  • Manage pricing and catalogue updates, preparing annual pricing and discount structures
  • Act as a key user of SAP, PowerBI, and CRM systems
  • Ensure accurate and reliable data across reporting systems
  • Collaborate with Sales Managers to plan, launch, and monitor sales campaigns
  • Track key KPIs and report back to senior and head office stakeholders
  • Gather and analyse market and competitor data to inform strategic decisions
  • Deliver ad hoc reporting, analysis, and project support for senior management and branch teams

What You'll Bring :

  • A degree in Economics, Business, or a related field
  • Minimum 5 years of professional experience, with a minimum of 3 years in a controller or analytical role, ideally with senior stakeholder exposure
  • Strong knowledge of Finance and Accounting principles (advantageous)
  • Expert-level skills in MS Office and MS Excel Advance
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities in a complex, deadline-driven environment
  • Why You Should Apply :

    If you're looking to contribute meaningfully to a fast-paced, values-driven team, this role gives you the platform to manage key sales and planning functions while being surrounded by energetic, driven professionals. You'll gain exposure to international operations, cross-functional collaboration, and the opportunity to influence business performance in a growing organisation.

    Please note : If you haven't heard back from us within two weeks of submitting your application, unfortunately your application has not been successful this time. We'd still love to stay connected-follow us online and keep an eye out for future opportunities that match your profile.
